net/mlx4_core: New init and exit flow for mlx4_core

Browse Source 
In the new flow, we separate the pci initialization and teardown
from the initialization and teardown of the other resources.

__mlx4_init_one handles the pci resources initialization. It then
calls mlx4_load_one to initialize the remainder of the resources.

When removing a device, mlx4_remove_one is invoked. However, now
mlx4_remove_one calls mlx4_unload_one to free all the resources except the pci
resources. When mlx4_unload_one returns, mlx4_remove_one then frees the
pci resources.

The above separation will allow us to implement 'reset flow' in the future.
It will also enable more EQs for VFs and is a pre-step to the modern API to
enable/disable SRIOV.

Also added nvfs; an integer array of size MLX4_MAX_PORTS + 1; to the mlx4_dev
struct. This new field is used to avoid parsing the num_vfs module parameter
each time the mlx4_restart_one is called.
