[ Upstream commit 53f0eb62b4d23d40686f2dd51776b8220f2887bb ]
E610 adapters no longer use the VFLINKS register to read PF's link
speed and linkup state. As a result VF driver cannot get actual link
state and it incorrectly reports 10G which is the default option.
It leads to a situation where even 1G adapters print 10G as actual
link speed. The same happens when PF driver set speed different than 10G.
Add new mailbox operation to let the VF driver request a PF driver
to provide actual link data. Update the mailbox api to v1.6.
Incorporate both ways of getting link status within the legacy
ixgbe_check_mac_link_vf() function.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
