65f0b417de sfc: Use write-combining to reduce TX latency
Based on work by Neil Turton <nturton@solarflare.com> and
Kieran Mansley <kmansley@solarflare.com>.

The BIU has now been verified to handle 3- and 4-dword writes within a
single 128-bit register correctly.  This means we can enable write-
combining and only insert write barriers between writes to distinct
registers.

This has been observed to save about 0.5 us when pushing a TX
descriptor to an empty TX queue.

5fb6b06d4e sfc: Remove configurable FIFO thresholds for pause frame generation
In Falcon we can configure the fill levels of the RX data FIFO which
trigger the generation of pause frames (if enabled), and we have
module parameters for this.

Siena does not allow the levels to be configured (or, if it does, this
is done by the MC firmware and is not configurable by drivers).

So far as I can tell, the module parameters are not used by our
internal scripts and have not been documented (with the exception of
the short parameter descriptions).  Therefore, remove them and always
initialise Falcon with the default values.

e5f0fd2780 sfc: Read MC firmware version when requested through ethtool
We currently make no use of siena_nic_data::fw_{version,build} except
to format the firmware version for ethtool_get_drvinfo().  Since we
only read the version at start of day, this information is incorrect
after an MC firmware update.  Remove the cached version information
and read it via MCDI whenever it is requested.

This patch converts bonding to use rx_handler. Results in cleaner

10f6dfcfde Revert "sch_netem: Remove classful functionality"
Many users have wanted the old functionality that was lost
to be able to use pfifo as inner qdisc for netem. The reason that
netem could not be classful with the older API was because of the
limitations of the old dequeue/requeue interface; now that qdisc API has
a peek function, there is no longer a problem with using any
inner qdisc's.

This reverts commit 0220146411.

dca8b089c9 ipv4: Rearrange how ip_route_newports() gets port keys.
ip_route_newports() is the only place in the entire kernel that
cares about the port members in the routing cache entry's lookup
flow key.

Therefore the only reason we store an entire flow inside of the
struct rtentry is for this one special case.

Rewrite ip_route_newports() such that:

1) The caller passes in the original port values, so we don't need
   to use the rth->fl.fl_ip_{s,d}port values to remember them.

2) The lookup flow is constructed by hand instead of being copied
   from the routing cache entry's flow.

17dc566c5e igb: add support for VF Transmit rate limit using iproute2
Implemented igb_ndo_set_vf_bw function which is being used
by iproute2 tool. In addition, updated igb_ndo_get_vf_config function
to show the actual rate limit to the user.

The rate limitation can be configured only when the link is up.
The rate limit value can be ranged between 0 and actual
link speed measured in Mbps. A value of '0' disables the rate limit for
this specific VF.

iproute2 usage will be 'ip link set ethX vf Y rate Z'.
After the command is made, the rate will be changed instantly.
To view the current rate limit, use 'ip link show ethX'.

The rates will be zeroed only upon driver reload or a link speed change.

This feature is being supported only by 82576 device.
