Heavily optimize the case of small RX packets of 160 bytes or less. For
this case, allocate a plain mbuf and copy the frame into it, then send the
copy up the stack, leaving the original mbuf+cluster in place in the
receive ring for immediate re-use. This saves a trip through 2 of the
3 zones of the compound mbuf allocator, a trip through busdma, and a trip
through the 1 of the 3 mbuf destructors. For our load at Netflix, this can
lower CPU consumption by as much as 20%. The copy algorithm is based on
investigative work from Luigi Rizzo earlier in the year.

If we pass down 64k - L2 hdr size + 1 to 64K L3+ data adding an ether
header will make the data go over the 64k limits announced to busdma as
maxsize and the transaction will fail.

With TSO this can result in a TCP regression due to the lost packet.

According to the data sheets ixgbe(4) 82598 and 82599 can handle up to
256k so increase the maximum.

hardware support, but have no other functional effect now.

Update driver to version 2.3.8:
CRITICAL FIX - with stats changes the older 82598 will panic

Update driver to version 2.3.8:
CRITICAL FIX - with stats changes the older 82598 will panic
and trash the stack on driver load, FCOE registers ONLY exist
in 82599 and must not be read otherwise.

kern/153951 - to correct incorrect media type on adapters
with pluggable modules I have eliminated the old static
table in favor of a new dynamic shared code routine. This
also has the benefit of detecting changes when a different
module is inserted.

Performance/enhancement to the Flow Director code from my
linux coworker (the developer of the code).

Fixes from Michael Tuexen - a data corruption problem on the
82599 (CRITICAL), fix so the buf size correctly adjusts as
the cluster changes, and max descriptors are set properly.
Also added 16K clusters for those REALLY big jumbos :)

In the RX path, the RX LOCK was not being released, and this
causes LOR problems. Add the code that igb already has.

Sync with in house shared code, this was necessary for the
Flow Director fix.

Do not allocate multicast array memory in multicast filter
configuration function. For failed memory allocations, em(4)/lem(4)
called panic(9) which is not acceptable on production box.
igb(4)/ixgb(4)/ix(4) allocated the required memory in stack which
consumed 768 bytes of stack memory which looks too big.

To address these issues, allocate multicast array memory in device
attach time and make multicast configuration success under any
conditions. This change also removes the excessive use of memory in
stack.
