Tariq Toukan 36154be40a net/mlx5e: Fix wrong CQE decompression
In cqe compression with striding RQ, the decompression of the CQE field
wqe_counter was done with a wrong wraparound value.
This caused handling cqes with a wrong pointer to wqe (rx descriptor)
and creating SKBs with wrong data, pointing to wrong (and already consumed)
strides/pages.

The meaning of the CQE field wqe_counter in striding RQ holds the
stride index instead of the WQE index. Hence, when decompressing
a CQE, wqe_counter should have wrapped-around the number of strides
in a single multi-packet WQE.

We dropped this wrap-around mask at all in CQE decompression of striding
RQ. It is not needed as in such cases the CQE compression session would
break because of different value of wqe_id field, starting a new
compression session.

Tested:
 ethtool -K ethxx lro off/on
 ethtool --set-priv-flags ethxx rx_cqe_compress on
 super_netperf 16 {ipv4,ipv6} -t TCP_STREAM -m 50 -D
 verified no csum errors and no page refcount issues.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
