David S. Miller c036cab4ee Merge branch 'mediatek-various-performance-improvements'
John Crispin says:

====================
net-next: mediatek: various performance improvements

During development we mainly ran testing using iperf doing 1500 byte
tcp frames. It was pointed out recently, that the driver does not perform
very well when using 512 byte udp frames. The biggest problem was that
RPS was not working as no rx queue was being set. fixing this more than
doubled the throughput. Additionally the IRQ mask register is now locked
independently for RX and TX. RX IRQ aggregation is also added. With all
these patches applied we can almost triple the throughput.

While at it we also add PHY status change reporting for GMACs connecting
directly to a PHY.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
