Subject: [PATCH 3.12 077/104] ixgbe: fix rx-usecs range checks for BQL

From: Emil Tantilov <emil.s.tantilov@...el.com>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit 2e0103810c6fed6a736c4a3af87b0f5c6bd8cd5b upstream.

This patch resolves an issue where the logic used to detect changes in rx-usecs
was incorrect and was masked by the call to ixgbe_update_rsc().

Setting rx-usecs between 0,2-9 and 1,10 and up requires a reset to allow
ixgbe_configure_tx_ring() to set the correct value for TXDCTL.WTHRESH in
order to avoid Tx hangs with BQL enabled.
