+Vendor driver could create mdev directory to specify extra generic parameters
+on mdev device by its type. Currently aggregation parameters are defined.
+Vendor driver should provide both items to support.

+Set target aggregated instances for device. Reading will show current

+Show maxium instances for aggregation.
