-cryptodev and compressdev APIs.

-Each QuickAssist VF device can expose one cryptodev PMD and/or one compressdev PMD.
+Each QuickAssist PF device exposes a number of VF devices. Each VF device can

 These QAT PMDs share the same underlying device and pci-mgmt code, but are
 enumerated independently on their respective APIs and appear as independent
 devices to applications.
