From: Javen Xu <redacted>

To support RSS, the number of hardware interrupt bits should match the
interrupt of software. So we add support for new interrupt mapping here.
ISR_VEC_MAP_REG is the hardware register to indicate interrupt status.
IMR_SET_VEC_MAP_REG is interrupt mask which is set to enable irq.

Changes in v2:
  - no changes

Changes in v3:
  - init index in napi_struct and get message_id from index
  - move rtl8169_disable_hw_interrupt_msix directly before the call to
    napi_schedule()
  - change the condition in rtl8169_request_irq when RTL_VEC_MAP_ENABLE
    enabled, use rtl8169_interrupt_msix

Changes in v4:
  - remove flag tp->feature, replace tp->features & RTL_VEC_MAP_ENABLE
    with tp->irq_nvecs > 1, they are equivalent.
  - follow reverse xmas tree, in rtl8169_interrupt_msix(),
    rtl8169_poll_msix_rx(), rtl8169_poll_msix_tx(),
    rtl8169_poll_msix_other()
  - use napi->index in rtl8169_poll_msix_other()
  - add a comment to describe RTL8127 MSI-X vector layout
  - simplify r8169_init_napi()

Changes in v5:
  - replace magic number in rtl8169_poll_msix_tx()

Changes in v6:
  - when irq_nvecs <= 1, use register IntrMask_8125, else using vec map
  - fix irq sequence in rtl8169_interrupt_msix(), disable interrupts
    before clean it
  - remove dead code in rtl8169_poll_msix_tx()

Changes in v7:
  - remove recheck_desc_ownbit
  - change return value of rtl_tx
  - remove message_id which only used once

Changes in v8:
  - fix rtl8169_netpoll()
  - remove tx_done

Changes in v9:
  - change the way of getting message_id of napi

Changes in v10:
  - no changes

Changes in v11:
  - add comment on rtl8169_poll_msix_tx, only use 1 tx
  - remove napi for other. Separate napi only for datapath, control path
    like linkchg is handled in interrupt function, which will not call
    napi any more.

Looking at r8169_init_napi(), later down the patch, it only calls
netif_napi_add() for min(tp->irq_nvecs, R8169_MAX_QUEUES) vectors, but this
loop iterates all tp->irq_nvecs. Can this be an issue? Looks like it will be
because entries entries >= R8169_MAX_QUEUES are zeroed but
rtl8169_interrupt_msix() would set dev to NULL.
Thanks for pointing out this. I have forgotten to modify this.

Thanks,
