Subject: s390/qeth: switch on SG by default for IQD devices
Patch-mainline: v4.19-rc4
Git-commit: 04db741d0df02fdb9ea4ddca32615153407dcf7f

Summary:     qeth: performance improvements
Description: This adds recent functional and performance improvements for the
             qeth network driver.
             Primarily this brings Scatter-Gather support for HiperSockets,
             reduced CPU consumption in the L3 IPv4 transmit path for OSA,
             improved Promiscuous Mode performance due to IFF_UNICAST_FLT,
             support for Scatter-Gather on z/VM virtual NICs, and
             support for delayed GRO flushing.

             For sanity & stability reasons, this effectively constitutes a
             backport of the qeth device driver from 4.19 mainline.

             s390/qeth: switch on SG by default for IQD devices

             Scatter-gather transmit brings a nice performance boost. Considering the
             rather large MTU sizes at play, it's also totally the Right Thing To Do.
