As reported by Matthias, on 5572 chip, even if we clear up TXWI
of corresponding beacon, hardware still try to send it or do other
action that increase power consumption peak up to 1A.
To avoid the issue, setup beaconing dynamically by configuring offsets
of currently active beacons and MAC_BSSID_DW1_BSS_BCN_NUM variable,
which limit number of beacons that hardware will try to send.

RX descriptor data must be read only if the descriptor has been fully
updated by HW.
There is a "ownership" flag in the descriptor itself to test this.
The driver code contains a read for the "ownership" flag and, after
it, other read access for descriptor data.
This is in DMA coherent memory, that is _not_ guaranteed to be immune
to instruction reordering, thus it is possible that the descriptor
data is read _before_ the "ownership" flag.
This can theoretically lead to a DMA/CPU race that may end up with the
driver reading the data when it is still not valid, and the "ownership"
bit just after enough time that the HW make the whole descriptor valid.
The driver will in this case believe the data is valid, but it will use
the invalid data read earlier.
In order to avoid this, this patch adds a rmb() to force the "ownership"
bit read to be issued before other descriptor data reads are attempted.

This patch makes the driver report signal information for rtl8185
boards using dBm instead of unspecified unit.
Rtl8180 remains untouched.
I did some tests to confirm the correctness of the measure performed
by the board and it seems reasonably correct.
The test setup has been made by connecting an AP with coax and
RF attenuators to the card antenna port.
In order to get a reference measure I tried with several cards with
different chipset I own. I found that many gave different results, and
I finally selected two cards that gave me consistent results to use
as reference: AR9271 and Prism54-usb (isl3887 with Frisbee radio).
Using this references I compared the RSSI information with my rtl8185
and I repeated tests with three different attenuation values, increasing
attenuation by 10dB each step.
I made only relative measures, making NO assumption about source power.
CCK measures seem very close to my references, OFDM are a little bit
less precise but, considering that these cards are not measuring
instrumentation, IMHO this is still fairly good.

When we mirror packets from a vxlan tunnel to other device,
the mirror device should see the same packets (that is, without
outer header). Because vxlan tunnel sets dev->hard_header_len,
tcf_mirred() resets mac header back to outer mac, the mirror device
actually sees packets with outer headers
Vxlan tunnel should set dev->needed_headroom instead of
dev->hard_header_len, like what other ip tunnels do. This fixes
the above problem.

A malicious VF might try to starve the other VFs & PF by creating
contineous doorbell floods. In order to negate this, HW has a threshold of
doorbells per client, which will stop the client doorbells from arriving
if crossed.
The threshold currently configured for VFs is too low - under extreme traffic
scenarios, it's possible for a VF to reach the threshold and thus for its
fastpath to stop working.

("sfc: Use TX PIO for sufficiently small packets")
The linux net driver uses memcpy_toio() in order to copy into
the PIO buffers.
Even on a 64bit machine this causes 32bit accesses to a write-
combined memory region.
There are hardware limitations that mean that only 64bit
naturally aligned accesses are safe in all cases.
Due to being write-combined memory region two 32bit accesses
may be coalesced to form a 64bit non 64bit aligned access.
Solution was to open-code the memory copy routines using pointers
and to only enable PIO for x86_64 machines.
Not tested on platforms other than x86_64 because this patch
disables the PIO feature on other platforms.
Compile-tested on x86 to ensure that works.
The WARN_ON_ONCE() code in the previous version of this patch
has been moved into the internal sfc debug driver as the
assertion was unnecessary in the upstream kernel code.
This bug fix applies to v3.13 and v3.14 stable branches.
