Horatiu Vultur fb9eb027fb net: lan966x: Improve the CPU TX bitrate.
When doing manual injection of the frame, it is required to check if the
TX FIFO is ready to accept the next word of the frame. For this we are
using 'readx_poll_timeout_atomic', the only problem is that before it
actually checks the status, is determining the time when to finish polling
the status. Which seems to be an expensive operation.
Therefore check the status of the TX FIFO before calling
'readx_poll_timeout_atomic'.
Doing this will improve the TX bitrate by ~70%. Because 99% the FIFO is
ready by that time. The measurements were done using iperf3.

Before:
[ ID] Interval           Transfer     Bitrate         Retr
[  5]   0.00-10.03  sec  55.2 MBytes  46.2 Mbits/sec    0 sender
[  5]   0.00-10.04  sec  53.8 MBytes  45.0 Mbits/sec      receiver

After:
[ ID] Interval           Transfer     Bitrate         Retr
[  5]   0.00-10.10  sec  95.0 MBytes  78.9 Mbits/sec    0 sender
[  5]   0.00-10.11  sec  95.0 MBytes  78.8 Mbits/sec      receiver

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.
