Fixes & Enhancements

Fixes:
- Fixed VLAN Attribute not appearing for 12G servers for remote management
- Fixed a race between the firmware and the hardware during driver start which blocked outbound completions.
- Fixed an issue which caused the firmware not to send link_down event to the driver when running the close_port command.
- Added the option to transmit corrupted DME pages for a very short period of time at the beginning of the Auto-Negotiation flow.
- Fixed an incorrect report of the PortRcvDataVLExtended/PortXmitDataVLExtended counters by the firmware.
- Fixed a rare issue which caused firmware's packet injector to cut off packets when the TX was congested.
- Fixed an issue that caused the response to TX requests to take up to 10 mili-seconds in IEEE clause 72 Link Training.
- Fixed an issue that caused the MAC address that was set from the OS using ifconfig to be not reflected in the OCBB buffer.
- Fixed a wrong timeout calculation in get_irpc_response.
- Fixed an issue which caused the firmware to unconditionally set the subnet prefix in the gid0 mgid_Table to the default prefix, and not according to the configured subnet prefix.

Enhancements:
- Added capability to allow connection to iSCSI SAN without booting
- Deprecated Boot option ROM Control in UEFI. Legacy Boot Protocol controls option ROM behavior.
- Added temperature thresholds high/low default for MAD sensing and NCSI/IPMI OEM commands.
- Added a new field to "set port" command which notifies the firmware what is the user_mtu size.
