> VEB switching feature for i40e is used to enable the switching between the
> VSIs connect to the virtual bridge. The old implementation is setting the
> virtual bridge mode as VEPA which is port aggregation. Enable the switching
> ability by setting the loop back mode for the specific VSIs which connect to PF
> or VFs.
> 
> v1: Add the VEB switching support.
> v2: Add the check for the FW version,which should larger than 5.0.
>     Add release note.
