Improve reliability of the mailbox communication and remove
its potential flaws that may lead to the undefined or faulty behavior.
Recently some users reported issues on ESX with 10G Intel NICs which were
found to be caused by incorrect implementation of the PF-VF mailbox
communication.
Technical investigation highlighted areas to improve in the communication
between PF or VF that wants to send the message (sender) and the other
part which receives the message (receiver):
- Locking the mailbox when the sender wants to send a message
- Releasing the mailbox when the communication ends
- Returning the result of the mailbox message execution

After many years of having a ~30 line copyright and license header to our
source files, we are finally able to reduce that to one line with the
advent of the SPDX identifier.
Also caught a few files missing the SPDX license identifier, so fixed
them up.

This patch creates new functions for ring initialization,
ixgbevf_configure_tx_ring() and ixgbevf_configure_rx_ring(). The work done
in these function previously was spread between several other functions and
this change should hopefully lead to greater readability and make the code
more like ixgbe. This patch also moves the placement of some older functions
to avoid having to write prototypes. It also promotes a couple of debug
messages to errors.

This change makes it so that the VF can support the PF/VF API negotiation
protocol. Specifically in this case we are adding support for API 1.0
which will mean that the VF is capable of cleaning up buffers that span

The interrupt registers accessed in ixgbevf are more similar to the igb
style registers than they are to the ixgbe style registers. As such we
would be better off setting up the code for the EICS, EIMS, EICS, EIAM, and
EIAC like we do in igb instead of ixgbe.
