Since 79c441ae50 ("ppp: implement x-netns support"), the PPP layer
calls skb_scrub_packet() whenever the skb is received on the PPP
device. Manually resetting packet meta-data in the L2TP layer is thus
redundant.

sh_eth: remove unused BE descriptor support
Here's a set of 2 patches against DaveM's 'net-next.git' repo plus the
recently merged to 'net.git' repo fix for the 16-bit descriptor endianness.
We get rid of ~30 LoCs and ~300 bytes of code.

Now that {cpu|edmac}_to_{edmac|cpu}() functions boiled down to the mere

anymore, so just get rid of them.

Commit 71557a37ad ("[netdrvr] sh_eth: Add SH7619 support") added support
for the big-endian EDMAC descriptors. However, it was never used and never
worked right until the recent driver fixes. I think we now can just remove
this support, it was only burdening the driver from the start. It should be
easy to do without disturbing the SH platform code, at least for now...

====================
bnxt_en: Support combined and rx/tx channels.
The bnxt hardware uses a completion ring for rx and tx events. The driver
has to process the completion ring entries sequentially for the events.
The current code only supports an rx/tx ring pair for each completion ring.
This patch series add support for using a dedicated completion ring for
rx only or tx only as an option configuarble using ethtool -L.
The benefits for using dedicated completion rings are:
1. A burst of rx packets can cause delay in processing tx events if the
completion ring is shared. If tx queue is stopped by BQL, this can cause
delay in re-starting the tx queue.
2. A completion ring is sized according to the rx and tx ring size rounded
up to the nearest power of 2. When the completion ring is shared, it is
sized by adding the rx and tx ring sizes and then rounded to the next power
of 2, often with a lot of wasted space.
3. Using dedicated completion ring, we can adjust the tx and rx coalescing
parameters independently for rx and tx.

In order to support dedicated or shared completion rings, the ring
indexing and mapping are re-structured as below:
1. bp->grp_info[] array index is 1:1 with bp->bnapi[] array index and
completion ring index.
2. rx rings 0 to n will be mapped to completion rings 0 to n.
3. If tx and rx rings share completion rings, then tx rings 0 to m will
be mapped to completion rings 0 to m.
4. If tx and rx rings use dedicated completion rings, then tx rings 0 to
m will be mapped to completion rings n + 1 to n + m.
5. Each tx or rx ring will use the corresponding completion ring index
for doorbell mapping and MSIX mapping.

Currently, an rx and a tx ring are always paired with a completion ring.
We want to restructure it so that it is possible to have a dedicated
completion ring for tx or rx only.
The bnxt hardware uses a completion ring for rx and tx events. The driver
has to process the completion ring entries sequentially for the rx and tx
events. Using a dedicated completion ring for rx only or tx only has these
benefits:
1. A burst of rx packets can cause delay in processing tx events if the
completion ring is shared. If tx queue is stopped by BQL, this can cause
delay in re-starting the tx queue.
2. A completion ring is sized according to the rx and tx ring size rounded
up to the nearest power of 2. When the completion ring is shared, it is
sized by adding the rx and tx ring sizes and then rounded to the next power
of 2, often with a lot of wasted space.
3. Using dedicated completion ring, we can adjust the tx and rx coalescing
parameters independently for rx and tx.
The first step is to separate the rx and tx ring structures from the
bnxt_napi struct.
In this patch, an rx ring and a tx ring will point to the same bnxt_napi
struct to share the same completion ring. No change in ring assignment
and mapping yet.
