vio: fix reuse of vio_dring slot

vio_dring_avail() will allow use of every dring entry, but when the last
entry is allocated then dr->prod == dr->cons which is indistinguishable from
the ring empty condition. This causes the next allocation to reuse an entry.
When this happens in sunvdc, the server side vds driver begins nack'ing the
messages and ends up resetting the ldc channel. This problem does not effect
sunvnet since it checks for < 2.

The fix here is to just never allocate the very last dring slot so that full
and empty are not the same condition. The request start path was changed to
check for the ring being full a bit earlier, and to stop the blk_queue if
there is no space left. The blk_queue will be restarted once the ring is
only half full again. The number of ring entries was increased to 512 which
matches the sunvnet and Solaris vdc drivers, and greatly reduces the
frequency of hitting the ring full condition and the associated blk_queue
stop/starting. The checks in sunvent were adjusted to account for
vio_dring_avail() returning 1 less.

sunvnet: Avoid sending superfluous LDC messages.

When sending out a burst of packets across multiple descriptors,
it is sufficient to send one LDC "start" trigger for
the first descriptor, so do not send an LDC "start" for every
pass through vnet_start_xmit. Similarly, it is sufficient to send
one "DRING_STOPPED" trigger for the last dring (and if that
fails, hold off and send the trigger later).

Optimizations to the number of LDC messages helps avoid
filling up the LDC channel with superfluous LDC messages
that risk triggering flow-control on the channel,
and also boosts performance.

sunvnet - add missing rmb() for sunvnet driver

The sunvnet driver does not have an rmb() in the ring consumer corresponding
to the wmb() in the producer. According to Documentation/memory-barriers.t

sunvnet - add missing rmb() for sunvnet driver

The sunvnet driver does not have an rmb() in the ring consumer corresponding
to the wmb() in the producer. According to Documentation/memory-barriers.txt:

"When dealing with CPU-CPU interactions, certain types of memory barrier should
always be paired. A lack of appropriate pairing is almost certainly an error."

In cases where an rmb() is not a no-op and a consumer is removing data from
the ring while a producer is adding new entries, a load reorder would allow

CPU1 CPU2
---- ----
LOAD desc.size [e.g]
STORE desc.size
<wmb>
set desc.hdr.state = VIO_DESC_READY
LOAD desc.hdr.state
[because VIO_DESC_READY, use
old desc.size, already loaded
out of order]

[CPU2 has reordered apparently unrelated LOADs]

To ensure other desc fields are not loaded before checking VIO_DESC_READY, we
need an rmb() between the check and desc data accesses.

I've also moved the viodbg() call to after the rmb() so that it, too, has
current descriptor data even with reordering, which has the side effect that
it won't print anything for descriptors that are not VIO_DESC_READY as before.
That's a) probably a good thing, since the fields are not necessarily set and,
b) better than adding another rmb() just for viodbg().

This would not be possible if strict-ordering is enforced, but then the
memory barriers should be no-ops in that case.

sunvnet: only use connected ports when sending

The sunvnet driver doesn't check whether or not a port is connected when
transmitting packets, which results in failures if a port fails to connect
(e.g., due to a version mismatch). The original code also assumes
unnecessarily that the first port is up and a switch, even though there is
a flag for switch ports.

This patch only matches a port if it is connected, and otherwise uses the
switch_port flag to send the packet to a switch port that is up.

hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.
