0b7f5d0b65 ixgbe: Merge RSS and flow director ring register caching and configuration
There are really only 3 modes that can control the number of queues.  Those
are RSS, DCB, and VMDq/SR-IOV.  Currently we have things much more broken
up than they need to be for how we are configuring the rings.  In order to
try and straiten some of this out I am going to start merging similar
functionality into single functions.  To start with I am merging the Flow
Director ring configuration into the RSS ring configuration since Flow
Director cannot function with DCB or SR-IOV.

e4b317e909 ixgbe: Add feature offset value to ring features
The mask value for ring features was overloaded for FCoE which can lead to
some confusion.  In order to avoid any confusion I am splitting the mask
value and adding an offset value.  This can be used for the start of the
FCoE rings, and in the future I hope to use it to store the start of the
registers for SR-IOV.

c087663ec8 ixgbe: Add upper limit to ring features
We are currently using indices to indicate the upper limit on a ring
feature.  However since we can switch back and forth on features such as
DCB and that has effects on other features such as RSS it is preferable to
instead store the upper limit separate from the current value for the
number of rings related to the feature.

49c7ffbe7b ixgbe: count q_vectors instead of MSI-X vectors
It makes much more sense for us to count q_vectors instead of MSI-X
vectors.  We were using num_msix_vectors to find the number of q_vectors in
multiple places.  This was wasteful since we only had one place that
actually needs the number of MSI-X vectors and that is in slow path.

49ce9c2cda drivers/net/ethernet: Fix (nearly-)kernel-doc comments for various functions
Fix incorrect start markers, wrapped summary lines, missing section
breaks, incorrect separators, and some name mismatches.  Delete
a few that are content-free.

57efd44c8c ixgbe: Do not pad FCoE frames as this can cause issues with FCoE DDP
FCoE target mode was experiencing issues due to the fact that we were
sending up data frames that were padded to 60 bytes after the DDP logic had
already stripped the frame down to 52 or 56 depending on the use of VLANs.
This was resulting in the FCoE DDP logic having issues since it thought the
frame still had data in it due to the padding.

To resolve this, adding code so that we do not pad FCoE frames prior to
handling them to the stack.

d0bfcdfd48 ixgbe: Reorder the ring to q_vector mapping to improve performance
This change reorders the mapping of rings to q_vectors in the case that the
number of rings exceeds the number of q_vectors.  Previously we would
allocate the first R/N queues to the first q_vector where R is the number
of rings and N is the number of q_vectors.  Instead of doing this we can do
a better job of interleaving the rings to the CPUs by assigning every Nth
ring to the q_vector.

The below tables illustrate this change for the R = 16 N = 4 case.
          Before patch  After patch
q_vector:  0  1  2  3    0  1  2  3
Rings:     0  4  8 12    0  1  2  3
           1  5  9 13    4  5  6  7
           3  6 10 14    8  9 10 11
           4  7 11 15   12 13 14 15

This should improve the performance for both DCB or ATR when the number of
rings exceeds the number of q_vectors allocated by the adapter.

b2db497eb2 ixgbe: Identify FCoE rings earlier to resolve memory corruption w/ FCoE
This patch makes it so that we identify FCoE rings earlier than
ixgbe_set_rx_buffer_len.  Instead we identify the Rx FCoE rings at
allocation time in ixgbe_alloc_q_vector.

The motivation behind this change is to avoid memory corruption when FCoE
is enabled.  Without this change we were initializing the rings at 0, and
2K on systems with 4K pages, then when we bumped the buffer size to 4K with
order 1 pages we were accessing offsets 2K and 6K instead of 0 and 4K.
This was resulting in memory corruptions.

8af3c33f4d ixgbe: fix namespace issues when FCoE/DCB is not enabled
Resolve namespace issues when FCoE or DCB is not enabled.
The issue is with certain configurations we end up with namespace
problems. A simple example:

ixgbe_main.c
 - defines func A()
 - uses func A()

ixgbe_fcoe.c
 - uses func A()

ixgbe.h
 - has prototype for func A()

For default (FCoE included) all is good.  But when it isn't the namespace
checker complains about how func A() could be static.

To resolve this, created a ixgbe_lib file to contain functions used
by DCB/FCoE and their helper functions so that they are always in
namespace whether or not DCB/FCoE is enabled.
