98f45da247 vxge: NETIF_F_LLTX removal
NETIF_F_LLTX and it's usage of local transmit locks are depricated in
favor of using the netdev queue's transmit lock.  Remove the local
lock and all references to it, and use the netdev queue transmit lock
in the transmit completion handler.

d03848e057 vxge: Remove queue_state references
Remove queue_state references, as they are no longer necessary.

Also, The driver needs to start/stop the queue regardless of which type
of steering is enabled.  Remove checks for TX_MULTIQ_STEERING only and
start/stop for all steering types.

cb27ec6064 vxge: Pass correct number of VFs value to pci_sriov_enable().
-  max_config_dev loadable parameter is set to 0xFF by default. Pass correct
   number of VFs value to pci_sriov_enable() if max_config_dev is set to its 
   default value.

b59c94571a vxge: Fixed MSIX interrupt configuration.
- Fixed MSIX interrupt configuration to support non contiguous vpaths in
  functions. Four msi-x vectors are reserved per vpath internal to the chip.
  In all, there are 68 msi-x vectors for the 17 vpaths in the chip. In the
  multi function configurations, non-contiguous vpaths are configured to
  represent a function. For instance vpaths 0 and 8 can be configured to
  represent function zero.

- If pci_enable_msix fails for the requested vectors, try with a lesser number
  vectors by reducing the vpath count.

ea11bbe0c9 vxge: prefetch skb->data
This patch implements prefetching of skb->data from a copy of the pointer
in the descriptor (which is already in the L1 cache at this point).  This
improves netperf rx performance (netperf -L 0,0 -c -H 192.168.254.2 -- -M
131072 -m 131072) by 4.9% on a P4 Xeon host.

ff67df55f6 vxge: fix pktgen hangs (don't abuse skb->cb[])
This patch fixes a case in the transmit completion code which was resulting
in pktgen hanging at the end of a run.  The cause is due to the fact that
the ->cb[] area of an skb cannot be used in a network driver's transmit
path, as that area belongs to the network protocol.  Pktgen hangs, as it
sends out the same packet multiple times, and vxge's use of this area of
the skb for a temporary list can only add the packet to the temporary list
once (while it may be on the queue many times).  The fix is to remove this
abuse of skb->cb[].  Instead, skb pointers are placed into a temporary
stack array, and then free outside of the tx lock.  This retains the smp
optimization of doing dev_kfree_skb() outside of the tx lock.

22fa125ee2 vxge: Disable fcs stripping.
- Disable fcs stripping. The minimum frame size that can be received by the
hardware is 57 Bytes. A 64 Byte Ethernet frame with the vlan tag and fcs
stripped will result in a 56 Byte frame which will lock up the receive
engine. The work around is to disable fcs stripping in the hardware which
is done with a firmware upgrade. The fixes are -
1. Ensure that the correct firmware version is used.
2. Decrement the indicated packet length of the receive packet by 4 bytes
(FCS length).

703da5a1a2 Neterion: New driver: Main entry points
This patch implements all the driver entry point functions.
- Definition of all module loadable paramters.
- Implementation of all driver entry point functions.

- Changes in this submission -
        - Fixed compilation error when enabling debug statements
        - Fixed few warnings when CONFIG_PCI_MSI is not defined
        - Removed unnecessary volatile variables
        - Removed compare_ether_addr as it causes unaligned memory access on
          the sparc64 platform.

- Changes in previous submissions -
        - As per Stephen Hemminger's comments removed the following loadable
          parameters - gro, rx_& tx max_indicate_pkts, exec_mode, rx & tx
          pause_enable, tx_steering_type and intr_type.
        - Added Device ID definition in vxge-main.h instead of
          include/linux/pci_ids.h file - Reported by David Miller
 - Incorporated following review comments from Ben Hutchings
        - NAPI is always enabled (no option to turn it OFF).
        - Loadable parameters
         rx_steering_type: This loadable option is removed.
         ring_blocks: This loadable option is removed.
         The driver default settings work well in most if not all cases.
         Another patch to configure these parameters with ethtool will be
         released in the future.
 - LRO has been deprecated in favour of GRO - Bill Fink & Dave Miller's comment
 - Fixed sparse warnings - Reported by Andi Kleen
 - Removed unused variables
