During heavy tx traffic, control messages (sent by liquidio driver to NIC
firmware) sometimes do not get processed in a timely manner. Reason is:
the low-level metadata of control messages and that of egress network
packets indicate that they have the same priority.
Fix it by setting a higher priority for control messages through the new
ctrl_qpg field in the oct_txpciq struct. It is the NIC firmware that does
the actual setting of priority by writing to the new ctrl_qpg field; the
host driver treats that value as opaque and just assigns it to pki_ih3->qpg

The zero value assigned to inst_processed at the end of each
iteration of the do-while loop is overwritten on the next iteration
and hence it is a redundant assignment and can be removed. Cleans

Defer ringing the Tx doorbell if skb->xmit_more is set unless the Tx queue
is full or stopped. To keep latency low, use a deferral limit of 8
packets. We chose 8 because Octeon can fetch at most 8 packets in a single
PCI read, and our tests show that 8 results in low latency.

When deleting a queue, clear its corresponding bit in the qmask, vfree its

Optimize DMA in NUMA systems by allocating memory from NUMA node that NIC
is plugged in to; DMA will no longer cross NUMA nodes. If NIC IRQs are
pinned to a local CPU, that CPU's access to the DMA'd data is also
optimized.

Because every call to octeon_flush_iq() has a hardcoded 1 for the
pending_thresh argument, simplify that function by removing that argument.
This avoids one atomic read as well.

alloc_workqueue replaces deprecated create_workqueue().
A dedicated workqueue has been used since the workitem viz
(&db_wq->wk.work which maps to check_db_timeout) is involved
in normal device operation. WQ_MEM_RECLAIM has been set to guarantee
forward progress under memory pressure, which is a requirement here.
Since there are only a fixed number of work items, explicit concurrency
limit is unnecessary.
flush_workqueue is unnecessary since destroy_workqueue() itself calls
drain_workqueue() which flushes repeatedly till the workqueue
becomes empty.
