Currently there are relatively complex conditional checks in the fast path,
for TX loopback enabling and resulting RX filter logic.
Move elaborate if's out of data path, replace them with a single flag
for each state and update that state from appropriate places.
Also, in native (non SRIOV) mode and not in loopback or in selftest,
there is no need to try and filter out packets that HW loopback-ed,
as in native mode we do not loopback packets anymore.

For SRIOV, some Hypervisor commands can be executed directly (native = 1).
Others should go through the command wrapper flow (for tracking resource
usage, for example, or for changing some HCA configurations that slaves
need to be notified of).
This patch sets the groundwork for this capability -- adding the correct
value of "native" in each case.
Note that if SRIOV is not activated, this parameter has no effect.

Moves the Mellanox driver into drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/ and
make the necessary Kconfig and Makefile changes.
