Description

I am setting up a QuickAssist Adapter 8950 following the steps outlined in this document:

https://01.org/sites/default/files/downloads/intelr-quickassist-technology/336212qatswgsgrev002review.pdf

I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, and device is present and enumerated on the PCIe bus.

```
84:00.0 Co-processor: Intel Corporation DH895XCC Series QAT
Subsystem: Intel Corporation DH895XCC Series QAT
```

After installing the QAT driver, I observe the following error messages in the dmesg kernel log:

```

When I attempt to start the qat server or adf ctrl, there are no devices found:

Checking status of all devices.
There is 0 QAT acceleration device(s) in the system:

I've installed the driver and applications as root user.
