dpaa2-eth: add support for IRQ coalescing
This patch set adds support for interrupts coalescing in dpaa2-eth.
The first patches add support for the hardware level configuration of
the IRQ coalescing in the dpio driver, while the ones that touch the
dpaa2-eth driver are responsible for the ethtool user interraction.
With the adaptive IRQ coalescing in place and enabled we have observed
the following changes in interrupt rates on one A72 core @2.2GHz
(LX2160A) while running a Rx TCP flow. The TCP stream is sent on a
10Gbit link and the only cpu that does Rx is fully utilized.
IRQ rate (irqs / sec)
before: 4.59 Gbits/sec 24k
after: 5.67 Gbits/sec 1.3k

============
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.
