Implement channel management functions to allow dynamic addition and removal of transmit queues. The `ethtool --show-channels` and `ethtool --set-channels` commands can be used to get and set the number of queues, respectively. Allow the ability to add as many transmit queues as available processors but never allow more than the hard maximum of 16. The number of receive queues is one and cannot be modified. Depending on whether the requested number of queues is larger or smaller than the current value, either allocate or free long term buffers. Since long term buffer construction and destruction can occur in two different areas, from either channel set requests or device open/close, define functions for performing this work. If allocation of a new buffer fails, then attempt to revert back to the previous number of queues. Signed-off-by: Nick Child <nnac123@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
