This patch is based on an earlier one submitted
by Jon Maxwell with the following commit message:
"We recently encountered a bug where a few customers using ibmveth on the
same LPAR hit an issue where a TCP session hung when large receive was
enabled. Closer analysis revealed that the session was stuck because the
one side was advertising a zero window repeatedly.
We narrowed this down to the fact the ibmveth driver did not set gso_size
which is translated by TCP into the MSS later up the stack. The MSS is
used to calculate the TCP window size and as that was abnormally large,
it was calculating a zero window, even although the sockets receive buffer
was completely empty."
We rely on the Virtual I/O Server partition in a pseries
environment to provide the MSS through the TCP header checksum
field. The stipulation is that users should not disable checksum
offloading if rx packet aggregation is enabled through VIOS.
Some firmware offerings provide the MSS in the RX buffer.
This is signalled by a bit in the RX queue descriptor.

Use the opt_* fields to determine the starting point for negotiating the
number of tx/rx completion queues with the vnic server. These contain the
number of queues that the vnic server estimates that it will be able to
allocate. While renegotiation may still occur, using the opt_* fields will
reduce the number of times this needs to happen and will prevent driver
probe timeout on systems using large numbers of ibmvnic client devices per
vnic port.

Currently the ehea driver is missing a call to netif_carrier_off()
before the interface bring-up; this is necessary in order to
initialize the __LINK_STATE_NOCARRIER bit in the net_device state
field. Otherwise, we observe state UNKNOWN on "ip address" command
output.
This patch adds a call to netif_carrier_off() on ehea's net device
open callback.

An upcoming feature of IBM VNIC protocol is the ability to configure
redundant backing devices for a VNIC client. In case of a failure
on the current backing device, the driver will receive a signal
from the hypervisor indicating that a failover will occur. The driver
will then wait for a message from the backing device before
establishing a new connection.

In some cases, if there is no VNIC server available during the driver
probe, the driver should wait until it receives an initialization
request from the VNIC Server to start the login process. Recent testing
has show that this is incorrectly handled in the current driver.
The proposed solution handles this initialization request by scheduling
a task in the shared workqueue that completes the login process and
registers the net device.

This patch creates a function that handles sub-CRQ IRQ creation
separately from sub-CRQ initialization. Another function is then needed
to release sub-CRQ resources prior to sub-CRQ IRQ creation.
These additions allow the driver probe function to be simplified,
specifically during the VNIC Server login process. A timeout is also
included while waiting for completion of the login process in case
the VNIC Server is not available or some other error occurs.

Enables the use of multiple transmit and receive scrqs allowing the ibmvnic
driver to take advantage of multiqueue functionality. To achieve this, the
driver must implement the process of negotiating the maximum number of
queues allowed by the server. Initially, the driver will attempt to login
with the maximum number of tx and rx queues supported by the server. If
the server fails to allocate the requested number of scrqs, it will return
partial success in the login response. In this case, we must reinitiate
the login process from the request capabilities stage and attempt to login
requesting fewer scrqs.

Allow the VNIC driver to provide descriptors containing
L2/L3/L4 headers to firmware. This feature is needed
for greater hardware compatibility and enablement of checksum
and TCP offloading features.
A new function is included for the hypervisor call,
H_SEND_SUBCRQ_INDIRECT, allowing a DMA-mapped array of SCRQ
descriptor elements to be sent to the VNIC server.
These additions will help fully enable checksum offloading as
well as other features as they are included later.

The name NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM is a misnomer. This does not correspond to the
set of features for offloading all checksums. This is a mask of the
checksum offload related features bits. It is incorrect to set both
NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and NETIF_F_IP_CSUM or NETIF_F_IPV6 at the same time for
features of a device.
This patch:
- Changes instances of NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM to NETIF_F_CSUM_MASK (where
NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM is being used as a mask).
- Changes bonding, sfc/efx, ipvlan, macvlan, vlan, and team drivers to
use NEITF_F_HW_CSUM in features list instead of NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM.

The size of the MAC register dump used to be the size specified by the
reg property in the device tree. Userland has no good way of finding
out that size, and it was not specified consistently for each MAC type,
so ethtool would end up printing junk at the end of the register dump
if the device tree didn't match the size it assumed.
Using the new version numbers indicates unambiguously that the size of
the MAC register dump is dependent only on the MAC type.

This howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configure
ISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementation
of PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point where
it has been well over a decade since I last updated it. And there is
no value in anyone else taking over updating it either.
However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate text
from one Kconfig file into the next. We are not doing end users any
favours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it with
fire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread.
No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text.

The recent commit to only register the EHEA memory hotplug hooks on
adapter probe has a few problems.
Firstly the reference counting is wrong for multiple adapters, in that
the hooks are registered multiple times. Secondly the check in the tear
down path is backward. Finally the error path doesn't decrement the
count.
The multiple registration of the hooks is the biggest problem, as it
leads to oopses when the system is rebooted, and/or errors during memory
hotplug, eg:
$ ./mem-on-off-test.sh -r 2
