ixgbevf: Mailbox communication



The 82599 virtual function device and the master 82599 physical function
device implement a mailbox utility for communication between the devices
using some SRAM scratch memory and a doorbell/answering mechanism enabled
via interrupt and/or polling.  This C module and accompanying header
file implement the base functions for use of this feature.
