    qed: Utilize resource-lock based scheme · 9c8517c4

    Management firmware is used as an arbiter between the various PFs
    in matters of resources, but some of the resources that need to
    be divided are dependent on the non-management firmware used,
    so management firmware first needs to be told how many resources
    there are before trying to divide them.
    
    As part of the initialization sequence, driver would first inform
    the management firmware of the available resources under
    a dedicated resource lock, and afterwards request for various
    resources which might be based on the previous set values.
