When running iperf in a two host configuration the following trace can
occur:
[ 319.728730] NETDEV WATCHDOG: ib0 (hfi1): transmit queue 0 timed out
The issue happens because the current implementation relies on the netif
txq being stopped to control the flushing of the tx list.
There are two resources that the transmit logic can wait on and stop the
txq:
- SDMA descriptors
- Ring space to hold completions
The ring space is tested on the sending side and relieved when the ring is
consumed in the napi tx reaping.
Unfortunately, that reaping can run conncurrently with the workqueue
flushing of the txlist. If the txq is started just before the workitem
executes, the txlist will never be flushed, leading to the txq being
stuck.
Fix by:
- Adding sleep/wakeup wrappers
* Use an atomic to control the call to the netif routines inside the
wrappers
- Use another atomic to record ring space exhaustion
* Only wakeup when the a ring space exhaustion has happened and it
relieved
Add additional wrappers to clarify the ring space resource handling.

The current code mishandles -EBUSY in two ways:
- The flow change doesn't test the return from the flush and runs on to
process the current packet racing with the wakeup processing
- The -EBUSY handling for a single packet inserts the tx into the txlist
after the submit call, racing with the same wakeup processing
Fix the first by dropping the skb and returning NETDEV_TX_OK.
Fix the second by insuring the the list entry within the txreq is inited
when allocated. This enables the sleep routine to detect that the txreq
has used the non-list api and queue the packet to the txlist.
Both flaws can lead to having the flushing thread executing in causing two
threads to manipulate the txlist.

The word 'descriptor' is misspelled throughout the tree.
Fix it up accordingly:
decriptors -> descriptors

This patch implements the mechanism to accelerate the transmit side of
a multiple transmit queue RDMA netdev by submitting the packets to
the SDMA engine directly instead of sending through the verbs layer.
This patch also changes the UD/SEND_ONLY op to output the entropy value
in byte 0 of deth[1]. UD/SEND_ONLY_WITH_IMMEDIATE uses the previous
behavior with no entropy value being output.
The code in the ipoib rdma netdev which submits tx requests upon
successful submission will call trace_sdma_output_ibhdr to output
the ibhdr to the trace buffer.
