This commit includes files movement to newly created folder
using git-mv command and fixes references in cnic and bnx2x code
to each other.

files moved using following:
#!/bin/bash
mkdir drivers/net/bnx2x/
list=$(cd drivers/net/ &amp;&amp; ls bnx2x*.[ch])
for f in $list; do
        git mv -f drivers/net/$f drivers/net/bnx2x/$f
done

<title>bnx2x: Allowing 0 as initial fairness value</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b015e3d112cab1880d262c56655c3ff60e179ceb</id>
<content type='text'>
Value of zero was used to disable the fairness mechanism. Though the code
(driver and FW) allowed changing the value at run time, it did not allow to do
that if the mechanism was disabled to begin with.
Fixed the FW to allow turning on and off the mechanism at run time. Fixed the
code to read the value from the chip at the right sequence.
Without this fix, if the initial value was set to zero, traffic could not run on
the interface.

<content type='text'>
The new FW improves the packets per second rate. It required a lot of change in
the FW which implies many changes in the driver to support it. It is now also
possible for the driver to use a separate MSI-X vector for Rx and Tx - this also
add some to the complicity of this change.

All things said - after this patch, practically all performance matrixes show
improvement.
Though Vladislav Zolotarov is not signed on this patch, he did most of the job
and deserves credit for that.

<id>urn:sha1:4d295db0efd2ccf06edb7a45ad885b40c56b7161</id>
<content type='text'>
Adding support for BCM8727 - a dual port SFP+ PHY. That includes verification of
the optic module vendor and part number - the list of approved modules resides
on the nvram and the module is verified by the FW. Since not all users would
like to use this verification feature, it can be disabled. The default behavior
is to issue a warning if the module is not approved, but still allow using it -
but it is also possible to disable the link if the module is not approved.
