- Patch 1 introduces devlink interface to get/set the mode of SRIOV switch.
- Patch 2 adds support to create VF port representor(VFPR) netdevs associated
  with SR-IOV VFs that can be used to control/configure VFs from PF name space.
- Patch 3 enables syncing link state between VFs and VFPRs.
- Patch 4 adds a new type to metadata_dst to allow passing VF id to lower device.
- Patch 5 adds TX and RX support to VFPR netdevs.
- Patch 6 enables HW and SW VFPR statistics to be exposed via netlink on VFPR
  netdevs.
