Currently an skb requiring TSO may not fit within a minimum-size TX
queue. The TX queue selected for the skb may stall and trigger the TX
watchdog repeatedly (since the problem skb will be retried after the
TX reset). This issue is designated as CVE-2012-3412.
Set the maximum number of TSO segments for our devices to 100. This
should make no difference to behaviour unless the actual MSS is less
than about 700. Increase the minimum TX queue size accordingly to
allow for 2 worst-case skbs, so that there will definitely be space
to add an skb after we wake a queue.
To avoid invalidating existing configurations, change
efx_ethtool_set_ringparam() to fix up values that are too small rather
than returning -EINVAL.

There is nothing in the VLAN driver or core VLAN support that
invalidates the TCP and IP header offsets.

tso_state::packet_space is always set in tso_start_packet(); the
value set in tso_start() is not used, and is also incorrect.

The 'page size' for PCIe DMA, i.e. the alignment of boundaries at
which DMA must be broken, is 4KB. Name this value as EFX_PAGE_SIZE
and use it in efx_max_tx_len(). Redefine EFX_BUF_SIZE as
EFX_PAGE_SIZE since its value is also a result of that requirement,
and use it in efx_init_special_buffer().

The out-of-tree version of the sfc driver used to run a self-test on
each device before registering it. Although this was never included
in-tree, some functions have checks for this special case which is not
really possible.

The advantage of kcalloc is, that will prevent integer overflows which could
result from the multiplication of number of elements and size and it is also
a bit nicer to read.

As soon as skb is pushed to hardware, it can be completed and freed, so
we should not dereference skb anymore.

To ease skb->truesize sanitization, its better to be able to localize
all references to skb frags size.
Define accessors : skb_frag_size() to fetch frag size, and
skb_frag_size_{set|add|sub}() to manipulate it.

When I converted some drivers from pci_map_page to skb_frag_dma_map I
neglected to convert PCI_DMA_xDEVICE into DMA_x_DEVICE and
pci_dma_mapping_error into dma_mapping_error.
