Michael Chan e8f267b063 bnxt_en: Improve RX doorbell sequence.
When both RX buffers and RX aggregation buffers have to be
replenished at the end of NAPI, post the RX aggregation buffers first
before RX buffers.  Otherwise, we may run into a situation where
there are only RX buffers without RX aggregation buffers for a split
second.  This will cause the hardware to abort the RX packet and
report buffer errors, which will cause unnecessary cleanup by the
driver.

Ringing the Aggregation ring doorbell first before the RX ring doorbell
will prevent some of these buffer errors.  Use the same sequence during
ring initialization as well.

README

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.
