Resolve namespace issues when FCoE or DCB is not enabled.
The issue is with certain configurations we end up with namespace
problems. A simple example:
ixgbe_main.c
- defines func A()
- uses func A()
ixgbe_fcoe.c
- uses func A()
ixgbe.h
- has prototype for func A()
For default (FCoE included) all is good. But when it isn't the namespace
checker complains about how func A() could be static.
To resolve this, created a ixgbe_lib file to contain functions used
by DCB/FCoE and their helper functions so that they are always in
namespace whether or not DCB/FCoE is enabled.

This patch replaces the variable name data with the variable name features
for ixgbe_fix_features and ixgbe_set_features. This helps to make some
issues more obvious such as the fact that we were disabling Rx VLAN tag
stripping when we should have been forcing it to be enabled when DCB is
enabled.
In addition there was deprecated code present that was disabling the LRO
flag if we had the itr value set too low. I have updated this logic so
that we will now allow the LRO flag to be set, but will not enable RSC
until the rx-usecs value is high enough to allow enough time for Rx packet
coalescing.

This change fixes two minor issues. The first was the fact that we were

Commit 28d82dc1c4ed ("epoll: limit paths") that I did to limit the
number of possible wakeup paths in epoll is causing a few applications
to longer work (dovecot for one).
The original patch is really about limiting the amount of epoll nesting
(since epoll fds can be attached to other fds). Thus, we probably can
allow an unlimited number of paths of depth 1. My current patch limits
it at 1000. And enforce the limits on paths that have a greater depth.
This is captured in: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=681578

2) hyperv and wimax/i2400m return NETDEV_TX_BUSY when they have
already freed the SKB, which causes crashes as to the caller this
means requeue the packet. Fixes from Eric Dumazet.
3) usbnet driver doesn't allocate the right amount of headroom on
fresh RX SKBs, fix from Eric Dumazet.
4) Fix regression in ip6_mc_find_dev_rcu(), as an RCU lookup it
abolutely should not take a reference to 'dev', this leads to

5) Fix netfilter ctnetlink race between delete and timeout expiration.

This change makes it so that we always write the DMA address for the skb
itself on the same tx_buffer struct that the skb is written on. This way
we don't need the MAPPED_AS_PAGE flag and we always know it will be the
first DMA value that we will have to unmap.
In addition I have found an issue in which we were leaking a DMA mapping if
the value happened to be 0 which is possible on some platforms. In order
to resolve that I have updated the transmit path to use the length instead
of the DMA mapping in order to determine if a mapping is actually present.
One other tweak in this patch is that it only writes the olinfo information
on the first descriptor. As it turns out it isn't necessary to write it
for anything but the first descriptor so there is no need to carry it
forward.

Instead of keeping a local copy of the skb on the stack for as long as long
as we do it makes sense to instead just place it on the first tx_buffer
structure so that we can save space on the stack and avoid unnecessary

ring later.

This change makes it more likely that the descriptor flags setup will use
cmov instructions instead of conditional jumps when setting up the flags.
The advantage to this is that the code should just flow a bit more
smoothly.
To do this it is necessary to set the TX_FLAGS_CSUM bit in tx_flags when
doing TSO so that we also do the checksum in addition to the segmentation
offload.

This patch replaces the existing Rx hot-path in the ixgbe driver with a new
implementation that is based on performing a double buffered receive. The
ixgbe driver already had something similar in place for its' packet split
path, however in that case we were still receiving the header for the
packet into the sk_buff. The big change here is the entire receive path
will receive into pages only, and then pull the header out of the page and
copy it into the sk_buff data. There are several motivations behind this
approach.
First, this allows us to avoid several cache misses as we were taking a
set of cache misses for allocating the sk_buff and then another set for
receiving data into the sk_buff. We are able to avoid these misses on
receive now as we allocate the sk_buff when data is available.
Second we are able to see a considerable performance gain when an IOMMU is
enabled because we are no longer unmapping every buffer on receive.
Instead we can delay the unmap until we are unable to use the page, and
instead we can simply call sync_single_range on the half of the page that
contains new data.
Finally we are able to drop a considerable amount of code from the driver
as we no longer have to support 2 different receive modes, packet split and
one buffer. This allows us to optimize the Rx path further since less
branching is required.

I found recently that the arp_process function which handles all of our received
arp frames, is using IPV4_DEVCONF_ALL macro to check the state of the arp_process
flag. This seems wrong, as it implies that either none or all of the network
interfaces accept gratuitous arps. This patch corrects that, allowing
per-interface arp_accept configuration to deviate from the all setting. Note
this also brings us into line with the way the arp_filter setting is handled
during arp_process execution.
Tested this myself on my home network, and confirmed it works as expected.

If host is going to autosuspend function with two interfaces and
if IP packet has arrived in-between of two usbnet_suspend() callbacks,
i.e usbnet_resume() is called in-between, tx data flow is stopped.
When autosuspend timer expires and device is put to autosuspend
again, tx queue is waked up and data can be sent again.
This behavior might be repeated several times in a row.

Change the datatype of "ip_addr" to __be32 as 'ip' should be in

Adapter needs "ip address" in big endian format stored at lower 32bit
of req.word[1]. netxen_config_ipaddr() now receives 'ip' in big endian
format. To satisfy adapter's need, use memcpy() to copy byte by byte
of 'ip' into lower 32bit of req.word[1].
Mac address and serial number of adapter need to be in little endian format.

When writing files to afs I sometimes hit a BUG:

afs_free_call
afs_make_call
afs_fs_store_data
afs_vnode_store_data
afs_write_back_from_locked_page
afs_writepages_region
afs_writepages
The cause is:
ASSERT(skb_queue_empty(&call->rx_queue));
Looking at a tcpdump of the session the abort happens because we
are exceeding our disk quota:
rx abort fs reply store-data error diskquota exceeded (32)
So the abort error is valid. We hit the BUG because we haven't
freed all the resources for the call.
By freeing any skbs in call->rx_queue before calling afs_free_call
we avoid hitting leaking memory and avoid hitting the BUG.
