> 1. Added code to determine PCI function number independent of kernel API.
> 2. Added Driver - FW version 2.0 support.
> 3. Changed producer and consumer register offset calculation.
> 4. Added management and privileged operation modes for npar functions. A module
>  parameter has been added to control it.
> 5. Added support for configuring the eswitch in the adapter.
