Saeed Mahameed 2239185ccd net/mlx5e: Optimize XDP frame xmit
XDP SQ has a fixed size WQE (MLX5E_XDP_TX_WQEBBS = 1) and only posts
one kind of WQE (MLX5_OPCODE_SEND),

Also we initialize SQ descriptors static fields once on open_xdpsq,
rather than every time on critical path.

Optimize the code in light of those facts and add a prefetch of the TX
descriptor first thing in the xdp xmit function.

Performance improvement:
System: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620 v3 @ 2.40GHz

Test case              Before     Now        improvement

============

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.
