According to Dave Miller "the networking stack has a
hard requirement that all SKBs which are transmitted
must have their completion signalled in a fininte
amount of time. This is because, until the SKB is
freed by the driver, it holds onto socket,
netfilter, and other subsystem resources."
In summary, this means that using TX IRQ throttling
for the networking gadgets is, at least, complex and
we should avoid it for the time being.

- Note: ipoib's actual max MTU can vary, depending on if the device is in
connected mode or not, so we'll just set the max_mtu value to the max
possible, and let the ndo_change_mtu function continue to validate any new
MTU change requests with checks for CM or not. Note that ipoib has no
min_mtu set, and thus, the network core's mtu > 0 check is the only lower
bounds here.

- The max_mtu value is actually one over IP_MAX_MTU here, but the idea is to
get past the core net MTU range checks so fjes_change_mtu can validate a
new MTU against what it supports (see fjes_support_mtu in fjes_hw.c)

If we don't guarantee that we will always get an
interrupt at least when we're queueing our very last
request, we could fall into situation where we queue
every request with 'no_interrupt' set. This will
cause the link to get stuck.
The behavior above has been triggered with g_ether
and dwc3.

This patch adds a flag "no_skb_reserve" in struct eth_dev.
So, if a peripheral driver sets the quirk_avoids_skb_reserve flag,
upper network gadget drivers (e.g. f_ncm.c) can avoid skb_reserve()
calling using the flag as well.

The gadget ethernet driver supports changing the MTU, but only allows this
when the USB cable is removed. The comment indicates that this is because
the "peer won't know". Even if the network link is still down and only the
USB link is established, the driver won't allow the change.
Other network interfaces allow changing the MTU any time, and don't force
the link to be disabled. This makes perfect sense, because in order to be
able to negotiate the MTU, the link needs to be up.
Remove the restriction so that it is now actually possible to change the
MTU (e.g. using "ifconfig usb0 mtu 15000") without having to manually pull
the plug or change the driver's default setting.
This is especially important after commit bba787a860

Since ep->driver_data is not used for endpoint claiming, neither for
enabled/disabled state storing, we can reduce number of places where
we read or modify it's value, as now it has no particular meaning for
function or framework logic.
In case of u_ether we only need to store in ep->driver_data pointer to
struct eth_dev, as it's used in rx_complete() and tx_complete() callbacks.
All other uses of ep->driver_data are now meaningless and can be safely
removed.

USB network adapters support Jumbo frames. The only thing blocking
that feature is the code in the gadget driver that disposes of
packets larger than 1518 bytes, and the limit on the ioctl to set
the mtu.
This patch relaxes these limits, and allows up to 15k frames sizes.
The 15k value was chosen because 16k does not work on all platforms,
and usingclose to 16k will result in allocating 5 or 8 4k pages to
store the skb, wasting pages at no measurable performance gain.
On a topic-miami board (Zynq-7000), iperf3 performance reports:
MTU= 1500, PC-to-gadget: 139 Mbps, Gadget-to-PC: 116 Mbps
MTU=15000, PC-to-gadget: 239 Mbps, Gadget-to-PC: 361 Mbps
On boards with slower CPUs the performance improvement will be
relatively much larger, e.g. an OMAP-L138 increased from 40 to
220 Mbps using a similar patch on an 2.6.37 kernel.

usb: patches for v3.17 merge window
Surprisingly enough, while a big set of patches, the majority is
composed of cleanups (using devm_*, fixing sparse errors, moving
code around, adding const, etc).
The highlights are addition of new support for PLX USB338x devices,
and support for USB 2.0-only configurations of the DWC3 IP core.
