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
setting the return value to false twice in the set_rss_queues function.
The second is the fact that we should have been using "min_t(int," instead
of "min((int)" in set_fdir_queues.

This change makes it so that only the 2nd cache line in the ring structure
should see frequent updates. The advantage to this is that it should
reduce the amount of cross CPU cache bouncing since only the 2nd cache line

The __netif_subqueue_stopped() just does the following:
struct netdev_queue *txq = netdev_get_tx_queue(dev, queue_index);
return netif_tx_queue_stopped(txq);
and since we already have the txq in scope, we can just call that
directly in this case.

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
read/write operations copying the pointer out of the stack and onto the
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.

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
big endian format.
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.
Change the data type of the related variables to __le32 / __le64 or cast it
explicitly to __le32 / __le64 depending upon the requirement.

A driver start_xmit() method cannot free skb and return NETDEV_TX_BUSY,
since caller is going to reuse freed skb.
In fact netif_tx_stop_queue() / netif_stop_queue() is needed before
returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY or you can trigger a ksoftirqd fatal loop.
In case of memory allocation error, only safe way is to drop the packet
and return NETDEV_TX_OK

When cycling the interface down and up, bnx2x_init_firmware() knows that
the firmware is already loaded, but nevertheless it allocates certain
arrays anew (init_data, init_ops, init_ops_offsets, iro_arr). The old
arrays are leaked.
Fix the leaks by returning early if the firmware was already loaded.
Because if the firmware is loaded, so are the arrays.

asix_rx_fixup() is complex, and does some unnecessary memory copies (at
least on x86 where NET_IP_ALIGN is 0)
Also, it tends to provide skbs with a big truesize (4096+256 with
MTU=1500) to upper stack, so incoming trafic consume a lot of memory and
I noticed early packet drops because we hit socket rcvbuf too fast.
Switch to a different strategy, using copybreak so that we provide nice
skbs to upper stack (including the NET_SKB_PAD to avoid future head
reallocations in some paths)
With this patch, I no longer see packets drops or tcp collapses on
various tcp workload with a AX88772 adapter.

Add support for byte queue limits (BQL), based on the similar

in commit bdbc063129e811264cd6c311d8c2d9b95de01231
"igb: Add support for byte queue limits."
A local variable for tx_queue->qindex was introduced in
gfar_clean_tx_ring, since it is now used often enough to warrant it,
and it cleans up the readability somewhat as well.

libertas provides a dump_survey implementation based on reading of
a RSSI value. However, this RSSI value is calculated based on the
last received beacon from the associated AP - it is not a good
way of surveying a channel in general, and even causes an error
if the card is not associated to a network.
As this is not appropriate as a survey, remove it. This fixes an
issue where something in userspace is repeatedly calling site-survey
during boot, resulting in many repeated errors as the RSSI value cannot
be read before associating.
