up to 2 rx/tx queues for the 82574.
Program the 82574 to enable 5 msix vectors, assign 1 to each rx queue,
1 to each tx queue and 1 to the link handler.
Inspired by DragonFlyBSD, enable some RSS logic for handling tx queue
handling/processing.
Move multiqueue handler functions so that they line up better in a diff
review to if_igb.c
Always enqueue tx work to be done in em_mq_start, if unable to acquire
the TX lock, then this will be processed in the background later by the
taskqueue. Remove mbuf argument from em_start_mq_locked() as the work
is always enqueued. (stolen from igb)
Setup TARC, TXDCTL and RXDCTL registers for better performance and stability
in multiqueue and singlequeue implementations. Handle Intel errata 3 and
generic multiqueue behavior with the initialization of TARC(0) and TARC(1)
Bind interrupt threads to cpus in order. (stolen from igb)
Add 2 new DDB functions, one to display the queue(s) and their settings and
one to reset the adapter. Primarily used for debugging.
In the multiqueue configuration, bump RXD and TXD ring size to max for the
adapter (4096). Setup an RDTR of 64 and an RADV of 128 in multiqueue configuration
to cut down on the number of interrupts. RADV was arbitrarily set to 2x RDTR
and can be adjusted as needed.
Cleanup the display in top a bit to make it clearer where the taskqueue threads
are running and what they should be doing.
Ensure that both queues are processed by em_local_timer() by writing them both
to the IMS register to generate soft interrupts.
Ensure that an soft interrupt is generated when em_msix_link() is run so that
any races between assertion of the link/status interrupt and a rx/tx interrupt
are handled.
Document existing tuneables: hw.em.eee_setting, hw.em.msix, hw.em.smart_pwr_down, hw.em.sbp
Document use of hw.em.num_queues and the new kernel option EM_MULTIQUEUE

Frames, mention the one chip that does not support them (obtained from

- Mention TSO and the chips that do not support it (provided by pdeuskar)
- Do not refer to the README for VLAN support, building and installing
