virtio_net: introduce VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID

There's no need for the guest to validate the checksum if it have been
validated by host nics. So this patch introduces a new flag -
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID which is used to bypass the checksum
examing in guest. The backend (tap/macvtap) may set this flag when
met skbs with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY to save cpu utilization.

No feature negotiation is needed as old driver just ignore this flag.

Iperf shows 12%-30% performance improvement for UDP traffic. For TCP,
when gro is on no difference as it produces skb with partial
checksum. But when gro is disabled, 20% or even higher improvement
could be measured by netperf.

(page 769 register 17) must be cleared after every PHY reset to prevent an

e1000e: access multiple PHY registers on same page at the same time

Doing a PHY page select can take a long time, relatively speaking. This
can cause a significant delay when updating a number of PHY registers on
the same page by unnecessarily setting the page for each PHY access. For
example when going to Sx, all the PHY wakeup registers (WUC, RAR[], MTA[],
SHRAR[], IP4AT[], IP6AT[], etc.) on 82577/8/9 need to be updated which
takes a long time which can cause issues when suspending.

This patch introduces new PHY ops function pointers to allow callers to
set the page directly and do any number of PHY accesses on that page.
This feature is currently only implemented for 82577, 82578 and 82579
PHYs for both the normally addressed registers as well as the special-
case addressing of the PHY wakeup registers on page 800. For the latter
registers, the existing function for accessing the wakeup registers has
been divided up into three- 1) enable access to the wakeup register page,
2) perform the register access and 3) disable access to the wakeup register
page. The two functions that enable/disable access to the wakeup register
page are necessarily available to the caller so that the caller can restore
the value of the Port Control (a.k.a. Wakeup Enable) register after the
wakeup register accesses are done.

All instances of writing to multiple PHY registers on the same page are
updated to use this new method and to acquire any PHY locking mechanism
before setting the page and performing the register accesses, and release
the locking mechanism afterward.

Some affiliated magic number cleanup is done as well.

It appears we constantly flip peers refcnt between 0 and 1 values, and

Remove this list completely and perform a garbage collection on-the-fly,

two sysctls (inet_peer_gc_mintime and inet_peer_gc_maxtime). This also
removes two pointers in inet_peer structure.
