244e27ad4d ixgbe: Store Tx flags and protocol information to tx_buffer sooner
This change makes it so that we store the tx_flags and protocol information
to the tx_buffer_info structure sooner. This allows us to avoid unnecessary
read/write transactions since we are placing the data in the final location
earlier.

091a624686 ixgbe: Write gso_segs and bytcount to the ring sooner
This change makes it so that gso_segs and bytecount are written to the ring
sooner.  This helps to simplify the logic for the two since segmentation
offloads can now update them within their own function.

fd0db0ed02 ixgbe: Place skb on first buffer_info structure to avoid using stack space
Instead of keeping a local copy of the skb on the stack for as long as long
as we do it makes sense to instead just place it on the first tx_buffer
structure so that we can save space on the stack and avoid unnecessary
read/write operations copying the pointer out of the stack and onto the
ring later.

f56e0cb1fe ixgbe: Add function for testing status bits in Rx descriptor
This change adds a small function for testing Rx status bits in the
descriptor.  The advantage to this is that we can avoid unnecessary
byte swaps on big endian systems.

ea81875ae0 ixgbe: FCoE: Add support for ndo_get_fcoe_hbainfo() call
This patch implements support for ndo_get_fcoe_hbainfo()
call in the ixgbe driver.

This function will be called by the FCoE protocol stack to
obtain device specific information from the underlying
device configured to do FCoE.

7b859ebc0a ixgbe: Add FCoE DDP allocation failure counters to ethtool stats.
Add 2 new counters to ethtool:
	1. Count DDP allocation failure since we max the number of buffers
		allowed in one DDP context.
	2. Count DDP allocation failure since we max the number of buffers
		allowed in one DDP context when we alloc an extra buffer.

and their moderation rate works slightly better
for FCoE also.
