====================
ibmvnic: Make driver resources dynamic

The ibmvnic driver needs to be able to handle the number of tx/rx
sub-crqs changing during a reset of the driver. To do this several
changes need to be made. First the num_active_[tx|rx]_pools
counters need to be re-named to num_active_[tc|rx]_scrqs, and
updated after resource initialization.

With this change we can now release and init the sub crqs and napi
(for rx sub crqs) when the number of sub crqs change.

Lastly, the stats buffer allocation is updated to always allocate
the maximum number of sub-crqs count of stats buffers.

Updates for V3:
Patch 3/5 - Make do_h_free parameter a bool

Updates for V2:
Patch 3/5 - Use correct queue count when driver is in probed state
for releasing sub crqs.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
