Subject: [PATCH 3.16 123/305] sfc: on MC reset, clear PIO buffer linkage
 in TXQs

3.16.37-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Edward Cree <ecree@...arflare.com>

commit c0795bf64cba4d1b796fdc5b74b33772841ed1bb upstream.

Otherwise, if we fail to allocate new PIO buffers, our TXQs will try to
use the old ones, which aren't there any more.

Fixes: 183233bec810 "sfc: Allocate and link PIO buffers; map them with write-combining"
