net: add gro_cells infrastructure
This adds a new include file (include/net/gro_cells.h), to bring GRO
(Generic Receive Offload) capability to tunnels, in a modular way.
Because tunnels receive path is lockless, and GRO adds a serialization
using a napi_struct, I chose to add an array of up to
DEFAULT_MAX_NUM_RSS_QUEUES cells, so that multi queue devices wont be
slowed down because of GRO layer.
skb_get_rx_queue() is used as selector.
In the future, we might add optional fanout capabilities, using rxhash
for example.
With help from Ben Hutchings who reminded me
netif_get_num_default_rss_queues() function.

ipv6: del unreachable route when an addr is deleted on lo
When an address is added on loopback (ip -6 a a 2002::1/128 dev lo), two routes
are added:
- one in the local table:
local 2002::1 via :: dev lo proto none metric 0
- one the in main table (for the prefix):
unreachable 2002::1 dev lo proto kernel metric 256 error -101
When the address is deleted, the route inserted in the main table remains
because we use rt6_lookup(), which returns NULL when dst->error is set, which
is the case here! Thus, it is better to use ip6_route_lookup() to avoid this
kind of filter.

bnx2x,cnic: use FW 7.8.2
This patch moves the bnx2x and cnic drivers into using FW 7.8.2
which was recently submitted into the linux-firmware tree.
A short summary of minor bugs fixed by this FW:
1. In switch dependent mode, fix several issues regarding inner vlan
vs. DCB priorities.
2. iSCSI - not all packets were completed on a forward channel.
3. DCB - fixed for 4-port devices.
4. Fixed false parity reported in CAM memories when operating near -5%
on the 1.0V core supply.
5. ETS default settings are set to fairness between traffic classes
(rather than strict priority), and uses the same chip receive buffer
configuration for both PFC and pause.

tg3: Disable multiple TX rings by default due to hardware flaw
Simple round-robin hardware TX scheduling can cause starvation of TX rings
with small packets when other TX rings have large TSO or jumbo packets.
In the simplest case, consider 2 TCP streams running in opposite
directions. The TSO TX traffic will hash to one ring and the ACKs for the
incoming data on a different TCP connection will hash to a different TX
ring. The hardware fetches one complete TSO packet (up to 64K data)
before servicing the other TX ring. When it gets to the other TX ring, it
will only fetch one packet (64-byte ACK packet in this case). After that,
it will switch back to the 1st ring filled with more TSO packets. Because
only one ACK can go out roughly every 500 usec in this case, the incoming
data rate becomes very low.
Update version to 3.125.

- Less calls to page allocator or accesses to page->_count
- Could allow struct skb_shared_info futures changes without major
performance impact.
This patch implements a transparent fallback to smaller
pages in case of memory pressure.
It also uses a standard "struct page_frag" instead of a custom one.

inetpeer: fix token initialization
When jiffies wraps around (for example, 5 minutes after the boot, see
INITIAL_JIFFIES) and peer has just been created, now - peer->rate_last can be
< XRLIM_BURST_FACTOR * timeout, so token is not set to the maximum value, thus
some icmp packets can be unexpectedly dropped.
Fix this case by initializing last_rate to 60 seconds in the past.

qlcnic: Fix scheduling while atomic bug
In the device close path, 'qlcnic_fw_destroy_ctx' and
'qlcnic_poll_rsp' call msleep. But 'qlcnic_fw_destroy_ctx' and
'qlcnic_poll_rsp' are called with 'adapter->tx_clean_lock' spin lock
held resulting in scheduling while atomic bug causing the following
trace.
I observed that the commit 012dc19a45b2b9cc2ebd14aaa401cf782c2abba4
from John Fastabend addresses a similar issue in ixgbevf driver.
Adopting the same approach used in the commit, this patch uses mdelay
to address the issue.

bnx2: Clean up remaining iounmap
commit c0357e975afdbbedab5c662d19bef865f02adc17 modified bnx2 to switch from
using ioremap/iounmap to pci_iomap/pci_iounmap. They missed a spot in the error
path of bnx2_init_one though. This patch just cleans that up.

- i5000_edac: Fix a longstanding bug when calculating the memory
size: before Kernel 3.6, the memory size were right only
with one specific configuration;
- sb_edac: Fixes a bug since the initial release of the driver:
with 16GB DIMMs, there's an overflow at the memory size,
causing the number of pages per dimm (an unsigned value)
to have the highest bit equal to 1, effectively mangling
the memory size.
The third bug can potentially affect the error decoding logic as well."
