vmxnet3 has a function vmxnet3_parse_and_copy_hdr which, among other operations,
uses pskb_may_pull to linearize the header portion of an skb. That operation
eventually uses local_bh_disable/enable to ensure that it doesn't race with the
drivers bottom half handler. Unfortunately, vmxnet3 preforms this
parse_and_copy operation with a spinlock held and interrupts disabled. This
causes us to run afoul of the WARN_ON_ONCE(irqs_disabled()) warning in
local_bh_enable, resulting in this:

Fix it by splitting vmxnet3_parse_and_copy_hdr into two functions:
vmxnet3_parse_hdr, which sets up the internal/on stack ctx datastructure, and
pulls the skb (both of which can be done without holding the spinlock with irqs
disabled
and
vmxnet3_copy_header, which just copies the skb to the tx ring under the lock
safely.
tested and shown to correct the described problem. Applies cleanly to the head

vmxnet3's current napi path is built to count every rx descriptor we recieve,
and use that as a count of the napi budget. That means its possible to return
from a napi poll halfway through recieving a fragmented packet accross multiple
dma descriptors. If that happens, the next napi poll will start with the
descriptor ring in an improper state (e.g. the first descriptor we look at may
have the end-of-packet bit set), which will cause a BUG halt in the driver.
Fix the issue by only counting whole received packets in the napi poll and
returning that value, rather than the descriptor count.

This patch extends the set/get_rxfh ethtool-options for getting or

It modifies drivers implementation of set/get_rxfh accordingly.
This change also delegates the responsibility of checking whether a
modification to a certain RX flow hash parameter is supported to the
driver implementation of set_rxfh.
User-kernel API is done through the new hfunc bitmask field in the
ethtool_rxfh struct. A bit set in the hfunc field is corresponding to an
index in the new string-set ETH_SS_RSS_HASH_FUNCS.
Got approval from most of the relevant driver maintainers that their
driver is using Toeplitz, and for the few that didn't answered, also
assumed it is Toeplitz.

vmxnet3's netpoll driver is incorrectly coded. It directly calls
vmxnet3_do_poll, which is the driver internal napi poll routine. As the netpoll
controller method doesn't block real napi polls in any way, there is a potential
for race conditions in which the netpoll controller method and the napi poll
method run concurrently. The result is data corruption causing panics such as this
one recently observed:

Noticed that vmxnet3's get_ringparam function was returning the summation of all
ring buffers on a NIC, rather than just the size of any one ring. This causes
problems when a vmxnet3 instance has multiple queues, as ethtool, when setting
ring parameters, first gets the current ring parameters to set the existing
values in the set_ringparm commannd. The result is, that unless both rx and tx
ring sizes are set in a single operation, which ever ring is not set will
silently have its ring count multiplied by the number of queues on the NIC until
it reaches a driver defined maxiumum value.
Fix it by not multiplying the rx and tx ring sizes by the number of queues in
the system, like every other driver. Tested by myself successfully.

vmxnet3 fails to set netif_carrier_off on probe, meaning that when an interface
