9144d75e22 include/linux/bitops.h: introduce BITS_PER_TYPE
net_dim.h has a rather useful extension to BITS_PER_BYTE to compute the
number of bits in a type (BITS_PER_BYTE * sizeof(T)), so promote the macro
to bitops.h, alongside BITS_PER_BYTE, for wider usage.

623ad75522 net/dim: Support adaptive TX moderation
Interrupt moderation for TX traffic requires different profiles than RX
interrupt moderation. The main goal here is to reduce interrupt rate and
allow better payload aggregation by keeping SKBs in the TX queue a bit
longer. Ping-pong behavior would get a profile with a short timer, so
latency wouldn't increase for these scenarios. There might be a slight
degradation in bandwidth for single stream with large message sizes, since
net.ipv4.tcp_limit_output_bytes is limiting the allowed TX traffic, but
with many streams performance is always improved.

f97c3dc3c0 net/dim: Fix int overflow
When calculating difference between samples, the values
are multiplied by 100. Large values may cause int overflow
when multiplied (usually on first iteration).
Fixed by forcing 100 to be of type unsigned long.

5165674ff5 net/dim: Fix fixpoint divide exception in net_dim_stats_compare
Helmut reported a bug about devision by zero while
running traffic and doing physical cable pull test.

When the cable unplugged the ppms become zero, so when
dividing the current ppms by the previous ppms in the
next dim iteration there is devision by zero.

This patch prevent this division for both ppms and epms.

4c4dbb4a73 net/mlx5e: Move dynamic interrupt coalescing code to include/linux
This move allows drivers to add private structure elements to track the
number of packets, bytes, and interrupts events per ring.  A driver
also defines a workqueue handler to act on this collected data once per
poll and modify the coalescing parameters per ring.
