Subject: [net-next.git 3/8 (V2)] stmmac: add the initial tx coalesce schema
This patch adds a new schema used for mitigating the
number of transmit interrupts.
It is based on a sw timer and a threshold value.
The timer is used to periodically call the stmmac_tx
function that can be invoked by the ISR but only for
the descriptors where the interrupt on completion
field has been set. This is tuned by a threshold.
Next step is to add the ability to tune these coalesce
values by ethtool.
Till now I have put a default that showed a real gain
on all the platforms ARM/SH4 where I performed benchmarks.
V2: review the logic to manage the IC bit in the TDESC
that was bugged because it didn't take care about the
fragments. Also fix the tx_count_frames that has not to be
limited to TX DMA ring. Thanks to Ben Hutchings.
