Moshe Levi de31df4211 SR-IOV: deprecate supported_pci_vendor_devs
Deprecate the supported_pci_vendor_devs option in order to reduce
complexity for configuring SR-IOV. Currently, neutron validates the pci
vendor and product id. However this check is already done by the
nova-scheduler when it selects a suitable hypervisor. More precisely,
the compute node validates this through the pci_passthrough_whitelist
option in nova.conf. Therefore this check in neutron is redundant.

This patch deprecates the supported_pci_vendor_devs in Newton release
and updates the supported_pci_vendor_devs default to None.
In case of None value the SR-IOV mechanism driver won't do
any pci vendor validation. In case this option is set
the SR-IOV mechanism driver will do the validaiton as it was
before.
