crypto: qat - exchange device capabilities over PFVF
Allow the VF driver to get the supported device capabilities through PFVF, by adding a new block message, the Capability Summary. This messages allows to exchange the capability through masks, which report, depending on the Capability Summary version, up to the following information: - algorithms and/or services that are supported by the device (e.g. symmetric crypto, data compression, etc.) - (extended) compression capabilities, with details about the compression service (e.g. if compress and verify is supported by this device) - the frequency of the device This patch supports the latest Capabilities Summary version 3 for VFs, but will limit support for the PF driver to version 2. This change also increases the PFVF protocol to version 2.
