Maciej Fijalkowski 3dd411efe1 ice: Make Tx threshold dependent on ring length
XDP_TX workloads use a concept of Tx threshold that indicates the
interval of setting RS bit on descriptors which in turn tells the HW to
generate an interrupt to signal the completion of Tx on HW side. It is
currently based on a constant value of 32 which might not work out well
for various sizes of ring combined with for example batch size that can
be set via SO_BUSY_POLL_BUDGET.

Internal tests based on AF_XDP showed that most convenient setup of
mentioned threshold is when it is equal to quarter of a ring length.

Make use of recently introduced ICE_RING_QUARTER macro and use this
value as a substitute for ICE_TX_THRESH.

Align also ethtool -G callback so that next_dd/next_rs fields are up to
date in terms of the ring size.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
