Based on work by Neil Turton <nturton@solarflare.com> and
Kieran Mansley <kmansley@solarflare.com>.
The BIU has now been verified to handle 3- and 4-dword writes within a
single 128-bit register correctly. This means we can enable write-
combining and only insert write barriers between writes to distinct
registers.
This has been observed to save about 0.5 us when pushing a TX
descriptor to an empty TX queue.

In Falcon we can configure the fill levels of the RX data FIFO which
trigger the generation of pause frames (if enabled), and we have
module parameters for this.
Siena does not allow the levels to be configured (or, if it does, this
is done by the MC firmware and is not configurable by drivers).
So far as I can tell, the module parameters are not used by our
internal scripts and have not been documented (with the exception of
the short parameter descriptions). Therefore, remove them and always
initialise Falcon with the default values.

Use the existing filter management functions to insert TCP/IPv4 and
UDP/IPv4 4-tuple filters for Receive Flow Steering.
For each channel, track how many RFS filters are being added during
processing of received packets and scan the corresponding number of
table entries for filters that may be reclaimed. Do this in batches

Implement the ndo_setup_tc() operation with 2 traffic classes.
Current Solarstorm controllers do not implement TX queue priority, but
they do allow queues to be 'paced' with an enforced delay between
packets. Paced and unpaced queues are scheduled in round-robin within
two separate hardware bins (paced queues with a large delay may be
placed into a third bin temporarily, but we won't use that). If there
are queues in both bins, the TX scheduler will alternate between them.
If we make high-priority queues unpaced and best-effort queues paced,
and high-priority queues are mostly empty, a single high-priority queue
can then instantly take 50% of the packet rate regardless of how many
of the best-effort queues have descriptors outstanding.
We do not actually want an enforced delay between packets on best-
effort queues, so we set the pace value to a reserved value that
actually results in a delay of 0.

efx_channel_get_{rx,tx}_queue() currently return NULL if the channel
isn't used for traffic in that direction. In most cases this is a
bug, but some callers rely on it as an existence test.
Add existence test functions efx_channel_has_{rx_queue,tx_queues}()

Change efx_channel_get_{rx,tx}_queue() to assert that the requested
queue exists.

no longer use pci_restore_state() at all (and that caused trivial
conflicts with the "make pci_restore_state return void" patch)
pci_restore_state only ever returns 0, thus there is no benefit in
having it return any value. Also, a large majority of the callers do
not check the return code of pci_restore_state. Make the
pci_restore_state a void return and avoid the overhead.

Long before this driver went into mainline, it had support for
multiple TX queues per port, with lockless TX enabled. Since Linux
did not know anything of this, filling up any hardware TX queue would
stop the core TX queue and multiple hardware TX queues could fill up
before the scheduler reacted. Thus it was necessary to keep a count
of how many TX queues were stopped and to wake the core TX queue only
when all had free space again.
The driver also previously (ab)used the per-hardware-queue stopped
flag as a counter to deal with various things that can inhibit TX, but
it no longer does that.
Remove the per-channel tx_stop_count, tx_stop_lock and
per-hardware-queue stopped count and just use the networking core
queue state directly.

If we are using a legacy interrupt, our IRQ may be shared and our
interrupt handler may be called even though interrupts are disabled on
the NIC. When we change ring sizes, we reallocate the event queue and
the interrupt handler may use an invalid pointer when called for
another device's interrupt.
Maintain a legacy_irq_enabled flag and test that at the top of the
interrupt handler. Note that this problem results from the need to
work around broken INT_ISR0 reads, and does not affect the legacy
interrupt handler for Falcon A1.

Move search_depth arrays into per-table state.
Define initialisation function efx_filter_init_rx() which sets
everything apart from the match fields.
Define efx_filter_set_{ipv4_local,ipv4_full,eth_local}() to set the

support for additional protocols and more flexible matching using
multiple calls to these functions.

The separation between filter tables is largely an internal detail
and it may be removed in future hardware. To prepare for that:
- Merge table ID with filter index to make an opaque filter ID
- Wrap efx_filter_table_clear() with a function that clears filters
from both RX tables, which is all that the current caller requires

Whenever we add DMA descriptors to a TX ring and update the ring
pointer, the TX DMA engine must first read the new DMA descriptors and
then start reading packet data. However, all released Solarflare 10G
controllers have a 'TX push' feature that allows us to reduce latency
by writing the first new DMA descriptor along with the pointer update.
This is only useful when the queue is empty. The hardware should
ignore the pushed descriptor if the queue is not empty, but this check
is buggy, so we must do it in software.
In order to tell whether a TX queue is empty, we need to compare the
previous transmission count (write_count) and completion count
(read_count). However, if we do that every time we update the ring
pointer then read_count may ping-pong between the caches of two CPUs
running the transmission and completion paths for the queue.
Therefore, we split the check for an empty queue between the
completion path and the transmission path:
- Add an empty_read_count field representing a point at which the
completion path saw the TX queue as empty.
- Add an old_write_count field for use on the completion path.
- On the completion path, whenever read_count reaches or passes
old_write_count the TX queue may be empty. We then read
write_count, set empty_read_count if read_count == write_count,
and update old_write_count.
- On the transmission path, we read empty_read_count. If it's set, we
compare it with the value of write_count before the current set of
descriptors was added. If they match, the queue really is empty and
we can use TX push.
