[PATCH net 1/1] bnx2x: Assign unique DMAE channel number for FW DMAE transactions.

2018-11-09 Thread Sudarsana Reddy Kalluru
Driver assigns DMAE channel 0 for FW as part of START_RAMROD command. FW uses this channel for DMAE operations (e.g., TIME_SYNC implementation). Driver also uses the same channel 0 for DMAE operations for some of the PFs (e.g., PF0 on Port0). This could lead to concurrent access to the DMAE
