Since kmalloc() is nowadays [1] guaranteed to return naturally
aligned (i.e., aligned to the size itself) memory for power-of-2
sizes, we don't need to over-allocate the align amount, compute an
aligned address within the allocation, and (for later freeing) also
storing the original pointer [2].
Instead, just round up the length we want to allocate to the alignment
requirements, then round that up to the next power of 2. In theory,
this could allocate up to about twice as much memory as we needed. In
practice, (a) kmalloc() would in most cases anyway return a
power-of-2-sized allocation and (b) with the default values of the
bdRingLen[RT]x fields, the length is already itself a power of 2
greater than the alignment.
So we actually end up saving memory compared to the current
situtation (e.g. for tx, we currently allocate 128+32 bytes, which
kmalloc() likely rounds up to 192 or 256; with this patch, we just
allocate 128 bytes.) Also struct ucc_geth_private becomes a little
smaller.
[1] 59bb47985c1d ("mm, sl[aou]b: guarantee natural alignment for
kmalloc(power-of-two)")
[2] That storing was anyway done in a u32, which works on 32 bit
machines, but is not very elegant and certainly makes a reader of the
code pause for a while.

The numQueuesTx and numQueuesRx members of struct ucc_geth_info are
never set to anything but 1, and never have been. It's unclear how
well the code supporting multiple queues would work. Until somebody
wants to play with enabling that, help the compiler eliminate a lot of
dead code and loops that are not really loops by creating static
inline helpers. If and when the numQueuesTx/numQueuesRx fields are
re-introduced, it suffices to update those helper to return the
appropriate field.
This cuts the .text segment of ucc_geth.o by 8%.

These fields are only used within ucc_geth_startup(), so they might as
well be local variables in that function rather than being stashed in
struct ucc_geth_private.
Aside from making that struct a tiny bit smaller, it also shortens
some lines (getting rid of pointless casts while here), and fixes the
problems with using IS_ERR_VALUE() on a u32 as explained in commit
800cd6fb76f0 ("soc: fsl: qe: change return type of cpm_muram_alloc()
to s32").

Table 8-53 in the QUICC Engine Reference manual shows definitions of
fields up to a size of 192 bytes, not just 128. But in table 8-111,
one does find the text
Base Address of the Global Transmitter Parameter RAM Page. [...]
The user needs to allocate 128 bytes for this page. The address must
be aligned to the page size.
I've checked both rev. 7 (11/2015) and rev. 9 (05/2018) of the manual;
they both have this inconsistency (and the table numbers are the
same).
Adding a bit of debug printing, on my board the struct
ucc_geth_tx_global_pram is allocated at offset 0x880, while
the (opaque) ucc_geth_thread_data_tx gets allocated immediately
afterwards, at 0x900. So whatever the engine writes into the thread
data overlaps with the tail of the global tx pram (and devmem says
that something does get written during a simple ping).
I haven't observed any failure that could be attributed to this, but
it seems to be the kind of thing that would be extremely hard to
debug. So extend the struct definition so that we do allocate 192
bytes.

Over time, skb recycling infrastructure got litle interest and
many bugs. Generic rx path skb allocation is now using page
fragments for efficient GRO / TCP coalescing, and recyling
a tx skb for rx path is not worth the pain.
Last identified bug is that fat skbs can be recycled
and it can endup using high order pages after few iterations.
With help from Maxime Bizon, who pointed out that commit
87151b8689d (net: allow pskb_expand_head() to get maximum tailroom)
introduced this regression for recycled skbs.
Instead of fixing this bug, lets remove skb recycling.
Drivers wanting really hot skbs should use build_skb() anyway,
to allocate/populate sk_buff right before netif_receive_skb()
