There's really no excuse for an additional wmem_default of buffering
between the netdev queue and the ATM device. Two packets (one in-flight,
and one ready to send) ought to be fine. It's not as if it should take
long to get another from the netdev queue when we need it.
If necessary we can make the queue space configurable later, but I don't
think it's likely to be necessary.
cf. commit 9d02daf754 (pppoatm: Fix
excessive queue bloat) which did something very similar for PPPoATM.
Note that there is a tremendously unlikely race condition which may
result in qspace temporarily going negative. If a CPU running the
br2684_pop() function goes off into the weeds for a long period of time
after incrementing qspace to 1, but before calling netdev_wake_queue()...
and another CPU ends up calling br2684_start_xmit() and *stopping* the
queue again before the first CPU comes back, the netdev queue could
end up being woken when qspace has already reached zero.
An alternative approach to coping with this race would be to check in
br2684_start_xmit() for qspace==0 and return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, but just
using '> 0' and '< 1' for comparison instead of '== 0' and '!= 0' is
simpler. It just warranted a mention of *why* we do it that way...
Move the call to atmvcc->send() to happen *after* the accounting and
potentially stopping the netdev queue, in br2684_xmit_vcc(). This matters
if the ->send() call suffers an immediate failure, because it'll call
br2684_pop() with the offending skb before returning. We want that to
happen *after* we've done the initial accounting for the packet in
question. Also make it return an appropriate success/failure indication
while we're at it.
Tested by running 'ping -l 1000 bottomless.aaisp.net.uk' from within my
network, with only a single PPPoE-over-BR2684 link running. And after
setting txqueuelen on the nas0 interface to something low (5, in fact).
Before the patch, we'd see about 15 packets being queued and a resulting
latency of ~56ms being reached. After the patch, we see only about 8,
which is fairly much what we expect. And a max latency of ~36ms. On this
OpenWRT box, wmem_default is 163840.

We discovered that PPPoATM has an excessively deep transmit queue. A
queue the size of the default socket send buffer (wmem_default) is
maintained between the PPP generic core and the ATM device.
Fix it to queue a maximum of *two* packets. The one the ATM device is
currently working on, and one more for the ATM driver to process
immediately in its TX done interrupt handler. The PPP core is designed
to feed packets to the channel with minimal latency, so that really
ought to be enough to keep the ATM device busy.
While we're at it, fix the fact that we were triggering the wakeup
tasklet on *every* pppoatm_pop() call. The comment saying "this is
inefficient, but doing it right is too hard" turns out to be overly
pessimistic... I think :)
On machines like the Traverse Geos, with a slow Geode CPU and two
high-speed ADSL2+ interfaces, there were reports of extremely high CPU
usage which could partly be attributed to the extra wakeups.
(The wakeup handling could actually be made a whole lot easier if we
stop checking sk->sk_sndbuf altogether. Given that we now only queue
*two* packets ever, one wonders what the point is. As it is, you could
already deadlock the thing by setting the sk_sndbuf to a value lower
than the MTU of the device, and it'd just block for ever.)

[PATCH V5 net-next] neigh: new unresolved queue limits
unres_qlen is the number of frames we are able to queue per unresolved
neighbour. Its default value (3) was never changed and is responsible
for strange drops, especially if IP fragments are used, or multiple
sessions start in parallel. Even a single tcp flow can hit this limit.

It happens that if a packet arrives in a VC between the call to open it on
the hardware and the call to change the backend to br2684, br2684_regvcc
processes the packet and oopses dereferencing skb->dev because it is
NULL before the call to br2684_push().
