This howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configure
ISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementation
of PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point where
it has been well over a decade since I last updated it. And there is
no value in anyone else taking over updating it either.
However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate text
from one Kconfig file into the next. We are not doing end users any
favours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it with
fire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread.
No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text.

The bna_rx_config struct member paused can be removed as it is never

flags also cannot have BNA_RXF_F_PAUSED value and is always zero.
So the flags member can be removed as well as bna_rxf_flags enum and

Bug in the driver initialization causes soft-lockup if firmware
initialization timeout is reached. Polling function bfa_ioc_poll_fwinit()
incorrectly calls bfa_nw_iocpf_timeout() when the timeout is reached.
The problem is that bfa_nw_iocpf_timeout() calls again
bfa_ioc_poll_fwinit()... etc. The bfa_ioc_poll_fwinit() should directly
send timeout event for iocpf and the same should be done if firmware
download into HW fails.

Driver starts iocpf timer prior bnad_ioceth_enable() call and this is
unreasonable. This piece of code probably originates from Brocade/Qlogic
out-of-box driver during initial import into upstream. This driver uses
only one timer and queue to implement multiple timers and this timer is
started at this place. The upstream driver uses multiple timers instead
of this.

skb->truesize is not meant to be tracking amount of used bytes
in an skb, but amount of reserved/consumed bytes in memory.
For instance, if we use a single byte in last page fragment,
we have to account the full size of the fragment.
skb->truesize can be very different from skb->len, that has
a very specific safety purpose.

When Tx VLAN offloading is disabled frames with size ~ MTU are not
transmitted as the driver does not account 4 bytes of VLAN header added
by stack. It should use VLAN_ETH_HLEN instead of ETH_HLEN.
The second problem is with newer BNA chips (BNA 1860). These chips filter
out any VLAN tagged frames in Tx path. This is a problem when Tx VLAN
offloading is disabled and frames are tagged by stack. Older chips like
1010/1020 are not affected as they probably don't do such filtering.

This device claims TSO and checksum support for vlans. It also
allows a user to control vlan acceleration offloading. As such,
it is possible to turn off vlan acceleration and configure a vlan
which will continue to support TSO.
In such situation the packet passed down the the device will contain
a vlan header and skb->protocol will be set to ETH_P_8021Q.
The device assumes that skb->protocol contains network protocol
value and uses that value to set up TSO information. This results
in corrupted frames sent on the wire.
This patch extract the protocol value correctly and corrects TSO
and checksums for non-accelerated traffic.
