40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2018-09-18

This series contains changes to i40evf so that it becomes a more
generic virtual function driver for current and future silicon.

While doing the rename of i40evf to a more generic name of iavf,
we also put the driver on a severe diet due to how much of the
code was unneeded or was unused.  The outcome is a lean and mean
virtual function driver that continues to work on existing 40GbE
(i40e) virtual devices and prepped for future supported devices,
like the 100GbE (ice) virtual devices.

This solves 2 issues we saw coming or were already present, the
first was constant code duplication happening with i40e/i40evf,
when much of the duplicate code in the i40evf was not used or was
not needed.  The second was to remove the future confusion of why
future VF devices that were not considered "40GbE" only devices
were supported by i40evf.

The thought is that iavf will be the virtual function driver for
all future devices, so it should have a "generic" name to properly
represent that it is the VF driver for multiple generations of
devices.

The last patch in this series is unreleated to the iavf conversion
and just has to do with a MODULE_LICENSE correction.

Known Caveats:
Existing user space configurations may have to change, but the module
alias in patch 1 helps a bit here.
