Hello Roland,

This is the third round for patches for mlx4 VPI (Multi Protocol) support.
The patches include changes that were made according to the feedback that we
received from you, and also some additional features.
The main changes/additions in this series of patches are:
1. Using log values for numeric module parameters.
2. In our bitmap allocator, the table now includes only ranges that can be allocated,
   not including the ranges reserved from top.
3. The Mac and Vlan tables are being initialized through port_info initialization.
4. Changed the dynamic port configuration mechanism, to work per port. We use a separate
   sysfs file for each port.
5. Added port type auto negotiation support.
6. Added support for additional device IDs.

Thanks,
Yevgeny
