From: Rony Efraim <ronye@mellanox.com>

Add netlink directives and ndo entry to allow for controling
VF link, which can be in one of three states:

Auto - VF link state reflects the PF link state (default)

Up - VF link state is up, traffic from VF to VF works even if
the actual PF link is down

Down - VF link state is down, no traffic from/to this VF, can be of
use while configuring the VF

There's a bit missing here: you need to initialise ivi.linkstate to a
default value.  I'm not sure whether that should be
FLA_VF_LINK_STATE_AUTO (i.e. assume that's the default for all drivers/
hardware) or whether there should be an explicit 'unknown' value.

good catch Ben. Per the discussion held over the RFC thread, the
default is auto and so will be the value I will set here prior to the
call into the drivers.
