2019-10-04staging: qlge: Refill empty buffer queues from wqBenjamin Poirier
When operating at mtu 9000, qlge does order-1 allocations for rx buffers in atomic context. This is especially unreliable when free memory is low or fragmented. Add an approach similar to commit 3161e453e496 ("virtio: net refill on out-of-memory") to qlge so that the device doesn't lock up if there are allocation failures.

2019-07-23qlge: Move drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlge/ to drivers/staging/qlge/Benjamin Poirier
The hardware has been declared EOL by the vendor more than 5 years ago. What's more relevant to the Linux kernel is that the quality of this driver is not on par with many other mainline drivers.
