mainlining shenanigans
The u_ether driver has a qmult setting that multiplies the
transmit queue length (which by default is 2).
The intent is that it should be enabled at high/super speed, but
because the code does not explicitly check for USB_SUPER_PLUS,
it is disabled at that speed.
Fix this by ensuring that the queue multiplier is enabled for any
wired link at high speed or above. Using >= for USB_SPEED_*
constants seems correct because it is what the gadget_is_xxxspeed
functions do.
The queue multiplier substantially helps performance at higher
speeds. On a direct SuperSpeed Plus link to a Linux laptop,
iperf3 single TCP stream:
Before (qmult=1): 1.3 Gbps
After (qmult=5): 3.2 Gbps

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.
