4df864c1d9 networking: make skb_put & friends return void pointers
It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.

Make these functions (skb_put, __skb_put and pskb_put) return void *
and remove all the casts across the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only
where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the
following spatch:

    @@
    expression SKB, LEN;
    typedef u8;
    identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put };
    @@
    - *(fn(SKB, LEN))
    + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)

    @@
    expression E, SKB, LEN;
    identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put };
    type T;
    @@
    - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN)))
    + E = fn(SKB, LEN)

which actually doesn't cover pskb_put since there are only three
users overall.

A handful of stragglers were converted manually, notably a macro in
drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_bsdcomp.c and, oddly enough, one of the many
instances in net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c. In the former file, I also
had to fix one whitespace problem spatch introduced.

a5fcf8a6c9 net: propagate tc filter chain index down the ndo_setup_tc call
We need to push the chain index down to the drivers, so they have the
information to which chain the rule belongs. For now, no driver supports
multichain offload, so only chain 0 is supported. This is needed to
prevent chain squashes during offload for now. Later this will be used
to implement multichain offload.

271a8b428f sfc: limit the number of receive queues
The number of rx queues is determined by the rss_cpus parameter
or the cpu topology. If that is higher than EFX_MAX_RX_QUEUES the
driver can corrupt state.

56f36acd21 mqprio: Modify mqprio to pass user parameters via ndo_setup_tc.
The configurable priority to traffic class mapping and the user specified
queue ranges are used to configure the traffic class, overriding the
hardware defaults when the 'hw' option is set to 0. However, when the 'hw'
option is non-zero, the hardware QOS defaults are used.

This patch makes it so that we can pass the data the user provided to
ndo_setup_tc. This allows us to pull in the queue configuration if the
user requested it as well as any additional hardware offload type
requested by using a value other than 1 for the hw value.

Finally it also provides a means for the device driver to return the level
supported for the offload type via the qopt->hw value. Previously we were
just always assuming the value to be 1, in the future values beyond just 1
may be supported.

86bc8b310f sfc-falcon: get rid of custom busy polling code
In linux-4.5, busy polling was implemented in core
NAPI stack, meaning that all custom implementation can
be removed from drivers.

Not only we remove lot's of tricky code, we also remove
one lock operation in fast path.

6ad20165d3 drivers: net: generalize napi_complete_done()
napi_complete_done() allows to opt-in for gro_flush_timeout,
added back in linux-3.19, commit 3b47d30396
("net: gro: add a per device gro flush timer")

This allows for more efficient GRO aggregation without
sacrifying latencies.

bc1f44709c net: make ndo_get_stats64 a void function
The network device operation for reading statistics is only called
in one place, and it ignores the return value. Having a structure
return value is potentially confusing because some future driver could
incorrectly assume that the return value was used.

Fix all drivers with ndo_get_stats64 to have a void function.

5a6681e22c sfc: separate out SFC4000 ("Falcon") support into new sfc-falcon driver
Rationale: The differences between Falcon and Siena are in many ways larger
 than those between Siena and EF10 (despite Siena being nominally "Falcon-
 architecture"); for instance, Falcon has no MCPU, so there is no MCDI.
 Removing Falcon support from the sfc driver should simplify the latter,
 and avoid the possibility of Falcon support being broken by changes to sfc
 (which are rarely if ever tested on Falcon, it being end-of-lifed hardware).

The sfc-falcon driver created in this changeset is essentially a copy of the
 sfc driver, but with Siena- and EF10-specific code, including MCDI, removed
 and with the "efx_" identifier prefix changed to "ef4_" (for "EFX 4000-
 series") to avoid collisions when both drivers are built-in.

This changeset removes Falcon from the sfc driver's PCI ID table; then in
 sfc I've removed obvious Falcon-related code: I removed the Falcon NIC
 functions, Falcon PHY code, and EFX_REV_FALCON_*, then fixed up everything
 that referenced them.

Also, increment minor version of both drivers (to 4.1).

For now, CONFIG_SFC selects CONFIG_SFC_FALCON, so that updating old configs
 doesn't cause Falcon support to disappear; but that should be undone at
 some point in the future.
