This series adds the admin channel infrastructure and mailbox (MBOX)
protocol needed for V2 SR-IOV support in the enic driver.
The V2 SR-IOV design uses a direct PF-VF communication channel built on
dedicated WQ/RQ/CQ hardware resources and an MSI-X interrupt.
Firmware capability and admin channel infrastructure (patches 1-4):
- Probe-time firmware feature check for V2 SR-IOV support
- Admin channel open/close, RQ buffer management, CQ service
with MSI-X interrupt and NAPI polling
MBOX protocol and VF enable (patches 5-10):
- MBOX message types, core send/receive, PF and VF handlers
- V2 SR-IOV enable wiring with admin channel setup
- V2 VF probe with admin channel and PF registration
This series depends on "enic: SR-IOV V2 resource discovery and VF
type detection" (Series 1), which has been accepted.

Changes in v3:
- Use early-return pattern in enic_sriov_detect_vf_type to reduce
nesting (patch 1) [Breno Leitao]
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260408-enic-sriov-v2-admin-channel-v2-v2-0-d05dd3623fd3@cisco.com
Changes in v2:
- Fix lines exceeding 80 columns (patches 4, 6, 7, 8)
- Add __maybe_unused to enic_sriov_configure and enic_sriov_v2_enable;
.sriov_configure wiring deferred to a later series after devcmd
hardening is in place (patch 9)
- Guard probe-time auto-enable to skip V2 VFs (patch 9)
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260406-enic-sriov-v2-admin-channel-v2-v1-0-82cc47636a78@cisco.com
