Thomas Petazzoni ab42676af0 net: mvpp2: handle too large value in mvpp2_rx_time_coal_set()
When configuring the MVPP2_ISR_RX_THRESHOLD_REG with the RX coalescing
time threshold, we do not check for the maximum allowed value supported
by the driver, which means we might overflow and use a bogus value. This
commit adds a check for this situation, and if a value higher than what
is supported by the hardware is provided, then we use the maximum value
supported by the hardware.

In order to achieve this in a way that avoids overflow and rounding
errors, we introduce two utility functions mvpp2_usec_to_cycles() and
cycles_to_usec(). Many thanks to Russell King for suggesting this
implementation.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
