More RX/TX queues on a network card help spread the CPU load among
cores and achieve higher overall networking performance. The new
Mikrotik 10/25G NIC supports 4 RX and 4 TX queues. TX queues are
treated with equal priority. RX queue balancing is fixed based on
L2/L3/L4 hash.
This adds support for 4 RX/TX queues while maintaining backwards
compatibility with older hardware.
Simultaneous TX + RX performance on AMD Threadripper 3960X
with Mikrotik 10/25G NIC improved from 1.6Mpps to 3.2Mpps per port.
Backwards compatiblitiy was verified with AR8151 and AR8131 based
NICs.

Move napi and other per queue members into per rx queue struct.
Allocate max rx queues that any hw supported by the driver might have.
Patch that actually enables multiple rx queues will follow.

To get more performance from using multiple tx queues one needs
a per tx queue napi.
Move tx napi from per adapter struct into per tx queue struct.
Patch that actually enables multiple tx queues will follow.

Mikrotik 10/25G NIC supports hw checksum verification on rx for
IP/IPv6 + TCP/UDP packets. HW checksum offload helps reduce host
cpu load.
This enables the csum offload specifically for Mikrotik 10/25G NIC
as other HW supported by the driver is known to have problems with it.
TCP iperf3 to Threadripper 3960X with NIC improved 16.5 -> 20.0 Gbps
with mtu=1500.

The new Mikrotik 10/25G NIC maintains compatibility with existing atl1c
driver. However it does have new features.
This defines some new register offsets, code for identifying the new type
of NIC and correct speed detection for the NIC.

Tx queue cleanup happens in interrupt handler on same core as rx queue
processing. Both can take considerable amount of processing in high
packet-per-second scenarios.
Sending big amounts of packets can stall the rx processing which is
unfair and also can lead to out-of-memory condition since
__dev_kfree_skb_irq queues the skbs for later kfree in softirq which
is not allowed to happen with heavy load in interrupt handler.
This puts tx cleanup in its own napi and enables threaded napi to
allow the rx/tx queue processing to happen on different cores.
The ability to sustain equal amounts of tx/rx traffic increased:
from 280Kpps to 1130Kpps on Threadripper 3960X with upcoming
Mikrotik 10/25G NIC,
from 520Kpps to 850Kpps on Intel i3-3320 with Mikrotik RB44Ge adapter.

AFAICS this is safe: the lock is only used in the .ndo_start_xmit
function and this driver does not set LLTX.
Gets rid of TX_LOCKED return value, followup patches will remove it.

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives
and hence don't need to include <linux/init.h>. Most are just a
left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to
code getting copied from one driver to the next.
This covers everything under drivers/net except for wireless, which
has been submitted separately.

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.
Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

Please try the following patch : It should use 2K frags instead of 4K
for normal 1500 mtu
Thanks !
[PATCH] atl1c: use custom skb allocator
We had reports ( https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54021 )
that using high order pages for skb allocations is problematic for atl1c
We do not know exactly what the problem is, but we suspect that crossing
4K pages is not well supported by this hardware.
Use a custom allocator, using page allocator and 2K fragments for
optimal stack behavior. We might make this allocator generic
in future kernels.
