eebb02b1f0 vmxnet3: round down # of queues to power of two
vmxnet3 device supports only power-of-two number of queues. The driver
therefore needs to check this and rounds down the number of queues to the
nearest power of two.

5318d809d7 vmxnet3: fix starving rx ring whenoc_skb kb fails
If the rx ring is completely empty, then the device may never fire an rx
interrupt. Unfortunately, the rx interrupt is what triggers populating the
rx ring with fresh buffers, so this will cause networking to lock up.

This patch replenishes the skb in recv descriptor as soon as it is
peeled off while processing rx completions. If the skb/buffer
allocation fails, existing one is recycled and the packet in hand is
dropped. This way none of the RX desc is ever left empty, thus avoiding
starvation

72e85c45b9 vmxnet3: Convert to new vlan model.
This converts the vmxnet3 driver to use the new vlan model.  In doing so
it fixes missing tags in tcpdump and failure to do checksum offload when
tx vlan offload is disabled.

95305f6c3b vmxnet3: convert to 64 bit stats interface
Convert vmxnet3 driver to 64 bit statistics interface.
This driver was already counting packet per queue in a 64 bit value so not

e154b639bb vmxnet3: Use single tx queue when CONFIG_PCI_MSI not defined
Resending this patch with few changes.

Avoid multiple queues when MSI or MSI-X not available

Limit number of Tx queues to 1 if MSI/MSI-X support is not configured in
the kernel. This will make number of tx and rx queues equal when MSI/X
is not configured thus providing better performance.

115924b6bd net: Getting rid of the x86 dependency to built vmxnet3
This patch removes config dependency on x86 to build vmxnet3 driver. Thus
the driver can be built on big endian architectures now. Although vmxnet3
is not supported on VMs other than x86 architecture, all this code goes in
to ensure correctness. If the code is not dependent on x86, it should not
assume little endian architecture in any of its operations.

f6965582ac vmxnet3: use dev_dbg, fix build for CONFIG_BLOCK=n
vmxnet3 was using dprintk() for debugging output.  This was
defined in <linux/dst.h> and was the only thing that was
used from that header file.  This caused compile errors
when CONFIG_BLOCK was not enabled due to bio* and BIO*
uses in the header file, so change this driver to use
dev_dbg() for debugging output.
