This patch advances the qed* drivers into using the newer firmware -
This solves several firmware bugs, mostly related [but not limited to]
various init/deinit issues in various offloaded protocols.

It also introduces a major 4-Cached SGE change in firmware, which can be
seen in the storage drivers' changes.

In addition, this firmware is required for supporting the new QL41xxx
series of adapters; While this patch doesn't add the actual support,
the firmware contains the necessary initialization &amp; firmware logic to
operate such adapters [actual support would be added later on].

Changes from Previous versions:
-------------------------------
 - V2 - fix kbuild-test robot warnings

Since the submission of the qedr driver, there's inconsistency
in the licensing of the various qed/qede files - some are GPLv2
and some are dual-license.
Since qedr requires dual-license and it's dependent on both,
we're updating the licensing of all qed/qede source files.

Last FW submission reverted various macros into an older form,
where they generate compilation warnings on some architectures.

Bring back the newer macros instead.

This new firmware for the qed* adpaters fixes several issues:
 - Better blocking of malicious VFs.
 - After FLR, Tx-switching [internal routing] of packets might
   be incorrect.
 - Deletion of unicast MAC filters would sometime have side-effect
   of corrupting the MAC filters configred for a device.
It also contains fixes for future qed* drivers that *hopefully* would be
sent for review in the near future.

In addition, it would allow driver some new functionality, including:
 - Allowing PF/VF driver compaitibility with old drivers [running
   pre-8.10.5.0 firmware].
 - Better debug facilities.

This would also bump the qed* driver versions to 8.10.9.20.

The New QED firmware contains several fixes, including:
  - Wrong classification of packets in 4-port devices.
  - Anti-spoof interoperability with encapsulated packets.
  - Tx-switching of encapsulated packets.
It also slightly improves Tx performance of the device.

In addition, this firmware contains the necessary logic for
supporting iscsi &amp; rdma, for which we plan on pushing protocol
drivers in the imminent future.
