Adds the basic probing infrastructure to support the flower firmware.
This firmware is geared towards offloading OVS and can generally be
found in /lib/firmware/netronome/flower. It is also used by the NFP
kernel driver when OVS offload with TC is desired.
'/lib/firmware/netronome/flower' FW is loaded (automatically ?) by
kernel driver, right?
Is there anything related to the DPDK with the name/path of the FW?
And I wonder if these kind of information should be part of driver
documentation?

Why this assignment is required? Driver shouldn't need to update this
bus related data struct.
