5fb6b06d4e sfc: Remove configurable FIFO thresholds for pause frame generation
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.

94b274bf5f sfc: Add TX queues for high-priority traffic
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.

94dec6a2d2 sfc: Fix crash in legacy onterrupt handler during ring reallocation
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.

cd38557d78 sfc: Use TX push whenever adding descriptors to an empty queue
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.

f7d12cdcbb sfc: Refactor channel and queue lookup and iteration
In preparation for changes to the way channels and queue structures
are allocated, revise the macros and functions used to look up and
iterator over them.

- Replace efx_for_each_tx_queue() with iteration over channels then TX
  queues
- Replace efx_for_each_rx_queue() with iteration over channels then RX
  queues (with one exception, shortly to be removed)
- Introduce efx_get_{channel,rx_queue,tx_queue}() functions to look up
  channels and queues by index
- Introduce efx_channel_get_{rx,tx}_queue() functions to look up a
  channel's queues

58758aa505 sfc: Allocate DMA and event rings using GFP_KERNEL
Currently we allocate DMA descriptor rings and event rings using
pci_alloc_consistent() which selects non-blocking behaviour from the
page allocator (GFP_ATOMIC). This is unnecessary, and since we
currently allocate a single contiguous block for each ring (up to 32
pages!) these allocations are likely to fail if there is any
significant memory pressure.  Use dma_alloc_coherent() and GFP_KERNEL
instead.

90d683afd1 sfc: Remove efx_rx_queue::add_lock
Ensure that efx_fast_push_rx_descriptors() must only run
from efx_process_channel() [NAPI], or when napi_disable()
has been executed.

Reimplement the slow fill by sending an event to the
channel, so that NAPI runs, and hanging the subsequent
fast fill off the event handler. Replace the sfc_refill
workqueue and delayed work items with a timer. We do
not need to stop this timer in efx_flush_all() because
it's safe to send the event always; receiving it will
be delayed until NAPI is restarted.

fd371e32fe sfc: Workaround flush failures on Falcon B0
Under certain conditions a PHY may backpressure Falcon B0
in such a way that flushes timeout. In normal circumstances
the phy poller would fix the PHY, and the flush could complete.

But efx_nic_flush_queues() is always called after efx_stop_all(),
so the poller has been stopped. Even if this weren't the case,
how long would we have to wait for the poller to fix this? And
several callers of efx_nic_flush_queues() are about to reset
the device anyway - so we don't need to do anything.

Work around this bug by scheduling a reset. Ensure that the
MAC is never rewired back into the datapath before the reset
runs (we already ignore all rx events anyway).

41b7e4c326 sfc: Extend the legacy interrupt workarounds
Siena has two problems with legacy interrupts:
  1. There is no synchronisation between the ISR read completion,
     and the interrupt deassert message.
  2. A downstream read at the "wrong" moment can return 0, and
     suppress generating the next interrupt.

Falcon should suffer from both of these, and it appears it does.
Enable EFX_WORKAROUND_15783 on Falcon as well.

Also, when we see queues == 0, ensure we always schedule or rearm
every event queue.

error flags are all zero.  Even if we don't schedule a reset, we must
respect the queue mask and rearm the appropriate event queues.
