Since eliminating send_completion_tid from struct hv_netvsc_packet, we
haven't add proper book keeping for the skb of the batched packet. This
patch fixes this issue and allows the previous skb is properly freed.
Otherwise, a panic may happen.
Thanks to Simon Xiao <sixiao@microsoft.com> for bisecting and analysis.

Recent changes to 'struct flow_keys' (e.g commit d34af823ff40 ("net: Add
VLAN ID to flow_keys")) introduced a performance regression in netvsc
driver. Is problem is, however, not the above mentioned commit but the
fact that netvsc_set_hash() function did some assumptions on the struct
flow_keys data layout and this is wrong.
Get rid of netvsc_set_hash() by switching to skb_get_hash(). This change
will also imply switching to Jenkins hash from the currently used Toeplitz
but it seems there is no good excuse for Toeplitz to stay.

In commit 2a04ae8acb14 ("hv_netvsc: remove locking in netvsc_send()"), the
locking for MSD (Multi-Send Data) field was removed. This could cause a
race condition between RNDIS control messages and data packets processing,
because these two types of traffic are not synchronized.
This patch fixes this issue by sending control messages out directly
without reading MSD field.

The rndis header is 116 bytes big and can be placed in the default
head room that will be available in the skb. Since the netvsc packet
is less than 48 bytes, we can use the skb control buffer
for the netvsc packet. With these changes we don't need to
ask for additional head room.

There are several issues in hv_netvsc driver with regards to link status
change handling:
- RNDIS_STATUS_NETWORK_CHANGE results in calling userspace helper doing
'/etc/init.d/network restart' and this is inappropriate and broken for
many reasons.
- link_watch infrastructure only sends one notification per second and
in case of e.g. paired disconnect/connect events we get only one
notification with last status. This makes it impossible to handle such
situations in userspace.
Redo link status changes handling in the following way:
- Create a list of reconfig events in network device context.
- On a reconfig event add it to the list of events and schedule
netvsc_link_change().
- In netvsc_link_change() ensure 2-second delay between link status
changes.
- Handle RNDIS_STATUS_NETWORK_CHANGE as a paired disconnect/connect event.

This enables the use of ethtool --set-channels devname combined N to
change the number of vRSS queues. Separate rx, tx, and other parameters
are not supported. The maximum is rsscap.num_recv_que. It passes the
given value to rndis_filter_device_add through the device_info->num_chn
field.
If the procedure fails, it attempts to recover to the prior state. If
the recovery fails, it logs an error and aborts.
Current num_chn is saved and restored when changing the MTU.

The current code returns from probe without waiting for the proper handling
of subchannels that may be requested. If the netvsc driver were to be rapidly
loaded/unloaded, we can trigger a panic as the unload will be tearing
down state that may not have been fully setup yet. We fix this issue by making
sure that we return from the probe call only after ensuring that the
sub-channel offers in flight are properly handled.

When packet encapsulation is in use, the MTU needs to be reduced for
headroom reservation.
The existing code takes the updated MTU value only from the host side.
But vSwitch extensions, such as Open vSwitch, require the flexibility
to change the MTU to different values from within a guest during the
lifecycle of a vNIC, when the encapsulation protocol is changed. The
patch supports this kind of MTU changes.

Nothing in <asm/io.h> uses anything from <linux/vmalloc.h>, so
remove it from there and fix up the resulting build problems
triggered on x86 {64|32}-bit {def|allmod|allno}configs.
The breakages were triggering in places where x86 builds relied
on vmalloc() facilities but did not include <linux/vmalloc.h>
explicitly and relied on the implicit inclusion via <asm/io.h>.
Also add:
- <linux/init.h> to <linux/io.h>
- <asm/pgtable_types> to <asm/io.h>
... which were two other implicit header file dependencies.

The current algorithm for deciding on the number of VRSS channels is
not optimal since we open up the min of number of CPUs online and the
number of VRSS channels the host is offering. So on a 32 VCPU guest
we could potentially open 32 VRSS subchannels. Experimentation has
shown that it is best to limit the number of VRSS channels to the number
of CPUs within a NUMA node.
Here is the new algorithm for deciding on the number of sub-channels we
would open up:
1) Pick the minimum of what the host is offering and what the driver
in the guest is specifying as the default value.
2) Pick the minimum of (1) and the numbers of CPUs in the NUMA
node the primary channel is bound to.

Currently the struct netvsc_stats has a member s_sync

This definition will break kernel build as the macro
netdev_alloc_pcpu_stats requires this member name to be syncp.

This patch changes netvsc_stats's member name from s_sync to syncp to fix

Current code does not lock anything when calculating the TX and RX stats.
As a result, the RX and TX data reported by ifconfig are not accuracy in a
system with high network throughput and multiple CPUs (in my test,
RX/TX = 83% between 2 HyperV VM nodes which have 8 vCPUs and 40G Ethernet).
This patch fixed the above issue by using per_cpu stats.
netvsc_get_stats64() summarizes TX and RX data by iterating over all CPUs
to get their respective stats.
This v2 patch addressed David's comments on the cleanup path when
netdev_alloc_pcpu_stats() failed.

Four minor merge conflicts:
1) qca_spi.c renamed the local variable used for the SPI device
from spi_device to spi, meanwhile the spi_set_drvdata() call
got moved further up in the probe function.
2) Two changes were both adding new members to codel params
structure, and thus we had overlapping changes to the
initializer function.
3) 'net' was making a fix to sk_release_kernel() which is
completely removed in 'net-next'.
4) In net_namespace.c, the rtnl_net_fill() call for GET operations
had the command value fixed, meanwhile 'net-next' adjusted the
argument signature a bit.
This also matches example merge resolutions posted by Stephen
Rothwell over the past two days.

"hv_netvsc: Eliminate memory allocation in the packet send path
The network protocol used to communicate with the host is the remote ndis (rndis)

additional rndis state (rndis per-packet state). To manage this state, we
currently allocate memory in the transmit path. Eliminate this allocation by

1. Introduce netif-msg to netvsc to control debug logging output
and keep msg_enable in netvsc_device_context so that it is
kept persistently.
2. Only call dump_rndis_message() when NETIF_MSG_RX_ERR or above
is specified in netvsc module debug param.
In non-debug mode, in current code, dump_rndis_message() will not
dump anything but it still initialize some local variables and
process the switch logic which is unnecessary, especially in
high network throughput situation.

In netvsc_start_xmit() we can handle packets which are scattered around not
more than MAX_PAGE_BUFFER_COUNT-2 pages. It is, however, easy to create a
packet which is not big in size but occupies more pages (e.g. if it uses frags
on compound pages boundaries). When we drop such packet it cases sender to try
resending it but in most cases it will try resending the same packet which will
also get dropped, this will cause the particular connection to stick. To solve
the issue we can try linearizing skb.
