Merge branch 'net-stmmac-CPU-Performance-Improvements'



Jose Abreu says:

====================
net: stmmac: CPU Performance Improvements

CPU Performance improvements for stmmac. Please check bellow for results
before and after the series.

Patch 1/7, allows RX Interrupt on Completion to be disabled and only use the
RX HW Watchdog.

Patch 2/7, setups the default RX coalesce settings instead of using the
minimum value.

Patch 3/7 and 4/7, removes the uneeded computations for RX Flow Control
activation/de-activation, on some cases.

Patch 5/7, tunes-up the default coalesce settings.

Patch 6/7, re-works the TX coalesce timer activation logic.

Patch 7/7, removes the now uneeded TBU interrupt.
