Extract the microcode for the QLogic QLE7220 series IB HCA and use the
kernel microcode request facility to load the microcode.  This
supports Debian Linux's requirements to separate microcode which
doesn't have open source code available from the device driver.

<title>bnx2x: Allowing 0 as initial fairness value</title>

<id>b015e3d112cab1880d262c56655c3ff60e179ceb</id>
<content type='text'>
Value of zero was used to disable the fairness mechanism. Though the code
(driver and FW) allowed changing the value at run time, it did not allow to do
that if the mechanism was disabled to begin with.
Fixed the FW to allow turning on and off the mechanism at run time. Fixed the
code to read the value from the chip at the right sequence.
Without this fix, if the initial value was set to zero, traffic could not run on
the interface.
