Specification of entire RSS table in the driver allows to spread traffic
more equally across CPUs/RSS channels if number of RSS channels is not
power of 2.

Extend the mapping table for external port numbering to support port modes
which output to the second external port only. Where supported, map from
the current port mode rather than inferring from all the available modes.
Updated comments for clarity.

ticks are signed int and if statistics is not updated for a long time
(more than INT_MAX ticks, but less than UINT_MAX) difference becomes
negative and less than hz for a long time.
Other option to repeat is simply load driver (which initializes
timestamps to 0) when ticks are negative.

This is done because one has no point to have more channels since they
will be unused.

On Medford, licenses are required to enable RX and event cut through and to
disable RX batching. To avoid the need for the driver to make decisions based on
the licensing state, the MC_CMD_INIT_EVQ has been extended to allow us to leave
the decision to the firmware. If the adapter is licensed for low-latency use,
the firmware will choose the optimal settings for latency, otherwise it will use
the best settings for throughput.
For Huntington we still need to choose the settings ourselves.

When the low-latency firmware variant is running, it is reported as not
being capable of batching RX events, but it can still do so if the
FORCE_EV_MERGING flag is set on an RXQ. Therefore we need to handle
batched RX events even if the capability isn't set.
If this bug is fixed in the firmware such that the capability is set
even when running the low-latency firmware variant, it will almost
always be reported so I don't think we lose much by removing the check.

This also adjusts the timer values used to match the Linux net
driver implementation:
a) non-zero time intervals should result in at least one quantum
b) timer load/reload values are only zero biased for Falcon/Siena

This simplifies setting an initial interrupt moderation value, and
avoids most calls to evx_ev_qmoderate from contexts where MCDI is
not allowed (MCDI is need for an EVQ timer workaround in a later patch).

The buggy code was using the rxq index but should use the evq label
associated with the rxq. It was missed in r298735.
