80605c6513 ixgbe: consolidate packet buffer allocation
Consolidate packet buffer allocation currently being
done in the DCB path and main path. This allows the
feature set and packet buffer requirements to be done
once.

This is prep work to allow DCB to coexist with other
features namely, flow director.

55320cb58b ixgbe: DCB, abstract out dcb_config from DCB hardware configuration
Currently the routines that configure the HW for DCB require a
ixgbe_dcb_config structure. This structure was designed to support
the CEE standard and does not match the IEEE standard well.

This patch changes the HW routines in ixgbe_dcb_8259x.{ch} to use
raw pfc and bandwidth values. This requires some parsing of the DCB
configuration but makes the HW routines independent of the data
structure that contains the DCB configuration.

The primary advantage to doing this is we can do HW setup directly
from the 802.1Qaz ops without having to arbitrarily encapsulate this
data into the CEE structure.

2f90b8657e ixgbe: this patch adds support for DCB to the kernel and ixgbe driver
This adds support for Data Center Bridging (DCB) features in the ixgbe
driver and adds an rtnetlink interface for configuring DCB to the
kernel.  The DCB feature support included are Priority Grouping (PG) -
which allows bandwidth guarantees to be allocated to groups to traffic
based on the 802.1q priority, and Priority Based Flow Control (PFC) -
which introduces a new MAC control PAUSE frame which works at
granularity of the 802.1p priority instead of the link (IEEE 802.3x).
