[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 4/4] bnxt: Update the Broadcom PMD driver documentation

[Ajit Khaparde]

This patch reformats the Broadcom PMD driver documentation
based on recommendations from previous review referenced below:
http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/16144/

Also since the PMD now loads on a VF interface, update the
documentation accordingly.
