E830 adds hardware support to prevent the VF from overflowing the PF
mailbox with VIRTCHNL messages. E830 will use the hardware feature
(ICE_F_MBX_LIMIT) instead of the software solution ice_is_malicious_vf().
To prevent a VF from overflowing the PF, the PF sets the number of
messages per VF that can be in the PF's mailbox queue
(ICE_MBX_OVERFLOW_WATERMARK). When the PF processes a message from a VF,
the PF decrements the per VF message count using the E830_MBX_VF_DEC_TRIG
register.
