If a qeth device is set online, several initialisation steps are
performed. If a failure in one of these steps occurs, the qeth
device is reset into DOWN state. If due to the failure a qeth recovery
is scheduled and started in another thread, this might cause all kinds
of conflicts, even a kernel panic. The patch forbids scheduling of a
qeth recovery while online processing is performed till the card is in
state SOFTSETUP.

The maximum TSO size OSA can handle is 15 * PAGE_SIZE. This
patch reduces gso_max_size to this value and adds some sanity
checks and statistics to the TSO implementation.
Since only layer 3 is able to do TSO move all TSO related functions
to the qeth_l3 module.

Setting a qeth device online requires to call function
ccw_device_set_online() for read-, write-, and data-subchannel.
Failures should be detected immediately without an attempt to
invoke follow-on activity qeth_qdio_clear_card().,
In addition, ccw_device_set_online calls are consolidated in
qeth_core_main.c only.

Isolate data connection to a shared OSA card against other data
connections to the same OSA card. Connectivity between isolated
data connections sharing the same OSA card is therefore possible only
through external network gear (e.g. a router).

In case the IP address list contains entries (not removed when the device was set
offline) this entries should be registered next time the device is brought online.
In the past this was done implicitly with the device open call but since we wait
in the set IPv4 IPA and the device open common code holds various locks this
does not work any longer.

This patch converts the remaining occurences of raw return values to their

For HiperSocket devices receive-path checksumming is not required.
Thus NO_CHECKSUMMING is used as default for HiperSocket interfaces.
For layer3 devices configured with NO_CHECKSUMMING received skbs
should have set their ip_summed field to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY.

If a qeth device is plugged off, setting the device online stops in
state HARDSETUP and a failure is reported to the base cio-layer
causing halt/clear to be invoked. Replugging the device again triggers
a qeth recovery without notification of the cio-layer. If a device
is ungrouped in this state, the qeth set_offline function is not
invoked, because the corresponding ccwgroup device is not in state
ONLINE. Then incoming traffic is still handled by the qdio layer
resulting in a crash in qeth_l<x>_qdio_input_handler, because (part
of) the qeth data structures for this device are already removed.
Solution: After replugging the device qeth recovery should lead to a
working net device. Thus a "LAN offline" result when setting a qeth
device online must not report a failure to the base cio-layer.
