  sfc: Improve test for IOMMU in use (2013-06-24 20:02:53 +0100)

1. Make EEH recovery work when using legacy interrupts, from Alexandre
   Rames.

2. Enable accelerated RFS for VLAN-tagged flows, from Andy Lutomirski.

3. Improve performance for non-TCP (and particularly UDP) traffic, which
   regressed in 3.10 when we switched to always allocating paged RX
   buffers.  Partly by Jon Cooper.

4. Some minor bug fixes to IOMMU detection, timestamping capabilities,
   and IRQ cleanup on the probe failure path.

I've dropped the RX skb cache, which improved some benchmarks but
perhaps needs some reworking to be more generally useful.

Ben.
