d43f5c21d6 ixgbe: DCB, do not reset on CEE pg changes
The 82599 and 82598 devices do not require hardware resets to
configure CEE pg settings. This patch changes DCB configuration
to set the CEE pg values directly from the dcbnl ops routine.

This reduces the number of resets seen on the wire and allows
LLDP to reach a steady state faster.

d033d526a4 ixgbe: DCB, implement 802.1Qaz routines
Implements 802.1Qaz support for ixgbe driver. Additionally,
this adds IEEE_8021QAZ_TSA_{} defines to dcbnl.h this is to
avoid having to use cryptic numeric codes for the TSA type.

55320cb58b ixgbe: DCB, abstract out dcb_config from DCB hardware configuration
Currently the routines that configure the HW for DCB require a
ixgbe_dcb_config structure. This structure was designed to support
the CEE standard and does not match the IEEE standard well.

This patch changes the HW routines in ixgbe_dcb_8259x.{ch} to use
raw pfc and bandwidth values. This requires some parsing of the DCB
configuration but makes the HW routines independent of the data
structure that contains the DCB configuration.

The primary advantage to doing this is we can do HW setup directly
from the 802.1Qaz ops without having to arbitrarily encapsulate this
data into the CEE structure.

39a7e587ec ixgbe: DCB, remove round robin mode on 82598 devices
Remove round robin configuration code for 82598 parts it
is not settable and is always false.

If we need/want this in the future we can add it back properly.

80ab193dce ixgbe: DCB: credit max only needs to be gt TSO size for 82598
The maximum credits per traffic class only needs to be greater
then the TSO size for 82598 devices. The 82599 devices do not
have this requirement so only do this test for 82598 devices.

9806307a1c ixgbe: DCB, fix TX hang occurring in stress condition with PFC
The DCB credits refill quantum _must_ be greater than half the max
packet size. This is needed to guarantee that TX DMA operations
are not attempted during a pause state. Additionally, the min IFG
must be set correctly for DCB mode. If a DMA operation is
requested unexpectedly during the pause state the HW data
store may be corrupted leading to a DMA hang.  The DMA hang
requires a reset to correct. This fixes the HW configuration
to avoid this condition.

235ea828a1 ixgbe: Add DCB for 82599, remove BCN support
This patch adds the DCB (Data Center Bridging) support for 82599 hardware.
This is similar to how the 82598 DCB code works.

This patch also removes the BCN (Backwards Congestion Notification) netlink
configuration code from the driver.  BCN was a pre-standard congestion
notification framework, and was not what the IEEE body decided upon for
standard congestion management. QCN (802.1Qau), Quantized Congestion
Notification is the accepted standard, which is not supported by 82599,
hence we remove the support altogether.

2f90b8657e ixgbe: this patch adds support for DCB to the kernel and ixgbe driver
This adds support for Data Center Bridging (DCB) features in the ixgbe
driver and adds an rtnetlink interface for configuring DCB to the
kernel.  The DCB feature support included are Priority Grouping (PG) -
which allows bandwidth guarantees to be allocated to groups to traffic
based on the 802.1q priority, and Priority Based Flow Control (PFC) -
which introduces a new MAC control PAUSE frame which works at
granularity of the 802.1p priority instead of the link (IEEE 802.3x).
