For 82599 and x540 VFs and PF share the same RSS Key. Therefore we
will return
the same RSS key for all VFs.

x550 on the other hand has a separate RSS Key for every pool.

New in v5:
   - Use a newly added netdev op to allow/prevent the RSS Hash Key
querying on a per-VF
     basis.

New in v3:
   - Added a support for x550 devices.

New in v1 (compared to RFC):
   - Use "if-else" statement instead of a "switch-case" for a single
option case
     (in ixgbe_get_vf_rss_key()).
