b59c94571a vxge: Fixed MSIX interrupt configuration.
- Fixed MSIX interrupt configuration to support non contiguous vpaths in
  functions. Four msi-x vectors are reserved per vpath internal to the chip.
  In all, there are 68 msi-x vectors for the 17 vpaths in the chip. In the
  multi function configurations, non-contiguous vpaths are configured to
  represent a function. For instance vpaths 0 and 8 can be configured to
  represent function zero.

- If pci_enable_msix fails for the requested vectors, try with a lesser number
  vectors by reducing the vpath count.

3363276f1c vxge: Fix starvation of receive ring controller when blasted by short packets.
- Fix starvation of receive ring controller when blasted by short packets. This was because the driver was posting 64 rxds initially while the ring controller
was expecting to read 256 replenished rxds. While the driver was coming up,
the internal rxd memory filled up the 64 buffers provided and the ring
controller was left waiting for the remaining 192 rxds to complete the write
back of completed rxds to the host and generation of an interrupt.

18dec74c16 vxge: Fix a receive stall due to driver being out of synch with chip.
- Fix a receive stall due to driver being out of synch with chip. In a corner
case scenario the adapter's ring controller may return a RxD with transfer code
of 0xC, while the host ownership bit is still set to the adapter. The driver
needs to assume that this case where (host_ownership == 1 or adapter) and
(transfer_code == 0xC) is valid, that is, this RxD has been returned by the
receive ring controller but no frame data is associated with the rxd.

- Restore the transfer code field of each newly replenished RxD to 0x0.

- Code cleanup. Removed usage of magic numbers.

eb5f10c21b vxge: Allow multiple functions with INTA.
- Allow multiple functions with INTA.
- Removed the condition to allow only one vpath with INTA
- Ensure that the alarm bit in titan_mask_all_int register is cleared when
  driver exits.

ff67df55f6 vxge: fix pktgen hangs (don't abuse skb->cb[])
This patch fixes a case in the transmit completion code which was resulting
in pktgen hanging at the end of a run.  The cause is due to the fact that
the ->cb[] area of an skb cannot be used in a network driver's transmit
path, as that area belongs to the network protocol.  Pktgen hangs, as it
sends out the same packet multiple times, and vxge's use of this area of
the skb for a temporary list can only add the packet to the temporary list
once (while it may be on the queue many times).  The fix is to remove this
abuse of skb->cb[].  Instead, skb pointers are placed into a temporary
stack array, and then free outside of the tx lock.  This retains the smp
optimization of doing dev_kfree_skb() outside of the tx lock.

6052ae1676 vxge: Removed the code to bounds check the mss value
- Removed the code to bounds check the mss value. The hardware does bounds checking and
will not allow an oversized mss to lockup the transmit path.
