Subject: net: ena: limit refill Rx threshold to 256 to avoid latency issues
Patch-mainline: v4.20-rc1
Git-commit: 0574bb806dad29a3dada0ee42b01645477d48282
References: bsc#1111696 bsc#1117561
Currently Rx refill is done when the number of required descriptors is
above 1/8 queue size. With a default of 1024 entries per queue the
threshold is 128 descriptors.
There is intention to increase the queue size to 8196 entries.
In this case threshold of 1024 descriptors is too large and can hurt
latency.
Add another limitation to Rx threshold to be at most 256 descriptors.
