This patch adds support for adaptive interrupt coalescing.
For small pkts with low pkt rate, we can decrease the coalescing interrupt
dynamically which decreases the latency. This however increases the cpu
utilization. Based on testing with different coal intr and pkt rate we came up
with a table(mod_table) with rx_rate and coalescing interrupt value where we
get low latency without significant increase in cpu. mod_table table stores
the coalescing timer percentage value for different throughputs.
Function enic_calc_int_moderation() calculates the desired coalescing intr timer
value. This function is called in driver rx napi_poll. The actual value is set
by enic_set_int_moderation() which is called when napi_poll is complete. i.e
when we unmask the rx intr.
Adaptive coal intr is support only when driver is using msix intr. Because
intr is not shared.
Struct mod_range is used to store only the default adaptive coalescing intr
value.
Adaptive coal intr calue is calculated by
timer = range_start + ((rx_coal->range_end - range_start) *
mod_table[index].range_percent / 100);
rx_coal->range_end is the rx-usecs-high value set using ethtool.
range_start is rx-usecs-low, set using ethtool, if rx_small_pkt_bytes_cnt is
greater than 2 * rx_large_pkt_bytes_cnt. i.e small pkts are dominant. Else its
rx-usecs-low + 3.

This patch moves data allocated using kzalloc to managed data allocated
using devm_kzalloc and cleans now unnecessary kfrees in probe and remove
functions. An explicit linux/device.h include is added to make sure
the devm_*() routine declarations are unambiguously available.
The following Coccinelle semantic patch was used for making the change:

struct platform_driver p = {
.probe = probefn,
.remove = removefn,

tun_do_read always adds current thread to wait queue, even if a packet
is ready to read. This is inefficient because both sleeper and waker
want to acquire the wait queue spin lock when packet rate is high.
We restructure the read function and use common kernel networking
routines to handle receive, sleep and wakeup. With the change
available packets are checked first before the reading thread is added
to the wait queue.
Ran performance tests with the following configuration:
- my packet generator -> tap1 -> br0 -> tap0 -> my packet consumer
- sender pinned to one core and receiver pinned to another core
- sender send small UDP packets (64 bytes total) as fast as it can
- sandy bridge cores
- throughput are receiver side goodput numbers
The results are
baseline: 731k pkts/sec, cpu utilization at 1.50 cpus
changed: 783k pkts/sec, cpu utilization at 1.53 cpus
The performance difference is largely determined by packet rate and
inter-cpu communication cost. For example, if the sender and
receiver are pinned to different cpu sockets, the results are
baseline: 558k pkts/sec, cpu utilization at 1.71 cpus
changed: 690k pkts/sec, cpu utilization at 1.67 cpus

Sergei Shtylyov's patch brings support for the CAN hardware found on
Renesas R-Car CAN controllers. Four patches by Oliver Hartkopp, the
first cleans up the guard macros in the CAN headers the other three
improve the EFF frame filtering. Maximilian Schneider's patch adds
support for the GS_USB CAN devices.

The upper timer_interval limit is arbitrary and much higher
than anything usable in the real world. Reducing it from 15s
to ~4s to make the timer_interval fit in an u32 does not make
much difference. The limit is still outside the practical
bounds.
This eliminates the need for a 64bit timer_interval, fixing a
build error related to 64bit division:

Lots of devices request much larger buffers than reasonable. This

To have an idea of the effects of the protocol coalescing
it's useful to have some counters showing the different
aspects.
Due to the asymmetrical usbnet interface the netdev
rx_bytes counter has been counting real received payload,
while the tx_bytes counter has included the NCM/MBIM
framing overhead. This overhead can be many times the
payload because of the aggressive padding strategy of
this driver, and will vary a lot depending on device
and traffic.
With very few exceptions, users are only interested in
the payload size. Having an somewhat accurate payload
byte counter is particularly important for mobile
broadband devices, which many NCM devices and of course
all MBIM devices are. Users and userspace applications
will use this counter to monitor account quotas.
Having protocol specific counters for the overhead, we are
now able to correct the tx_bytes netdev counter so that
it shows the real payload

We pad frames larger than X to maximum size for devices which
don't need a ZLP after maximum sized frames. This allows the
device to optimize its transfers for one fixed buffer size.
X was arbitrarily set at 512 bytes regardless of real buffer
maximum, causing extreme overheads due to excessive padding of
larger tx buffers. Limit the padding to at most 3 full USB
packets, still allowing the overhead to payload ratio of 3/1.

Many newer NCM and MBIM devices will request a maximum tx
datagram count which is much smaller than our hard-coded
absolute max. We can reduce the overhead without sacrificing
any of the simplicity for these devices, by simply using the
true negotiated count in when calculated the maximum NTH and
NDP header sizes.

Datagram coalescing is an integral part of the NCM and MBIM
protocols, intended to reduce the interrupt load primarily
on the device end of the USB link. As with all coalescing
solutions, there is a trade-off between buffering and
interrupts.
The current defaults are based on the assumption that device
side buffers should be the limiting factor. However, many
modern high speed LTE modems suffers from buffer-bloat,
making this assumption fail. This results in sub-optimal
performance due to excessive coalescing. And in cases where
such modems are connected to cheap embedded hosts there is
often severe buffer allocation issues, giving very noticeable
performance degradation .
A start on improving this is going from build time hard
coded limits to per device user configurable limits. The
ethtool coalescing API was selected as user interface
because, although the tuned values are buffer sizes, these
settings directly control datagram coalescing.

Now that we have split out the part of the device setup
which MUST be done with the data interface in altsetting 0,
we can delay the rest of the initialization. This allows us
to move some of post-init buffer size config from bind to
the appropriate setup function.
The purpose of this refactoring is to collect all code
adjusting the rx_max and tx_max buffers in one place, so
that it is easier to call it from multiple call sites.

The existing fixed_phy_add() function has several drawbacks that
prevents it from being used as is for OF-based declaration of fixed
PHYs:
* The address of the PHY on the fake bus needs to be passed, while a
dynamic allocation is desired.
* Since the phy_device instantiation is post-poned until the next
mdiobus scan, there is no way to associate the fixed PHY with its
OF node, which later prevents of_phy_connect() from finding this
fixed PHY from a given OF node.
To solve this, this commit introduces fixed_phy_register(), which will
allocate an available PHY address, add the PHY using fixed_phy_add()
and instantiate the phy_device structure associated with the provided
OF node.

Until now, the fixed_phy_add() function was taking as argument
'phy_id', which was used both as the PHY address on the fake fixed
MDIO bus, and as the PHY id, as available in the MII_PHYSID1 and
MII_PHYSID2 registers. However, those two informations are completely
unrelated.
This patch decouples them. The PHY id of fixed PHYs is hardcoded to be
0x0. Ideally, a really reserved value would be nicer, but there
doesn't seem to be an easy of making sure a dummy value can be
assigned to the Linux kernel for such usage.
The PHY address remains passed by the caller of phy_fixed_add().
