b333293058 qeth: add support for af_iucv HiperSockets transport
This patch extends the HiperSockets device driver to send and receive
af_iucv traffic over HiperSockets transport.
TX: Driver uses new asynchronous delivery of storage blocks to pass
    flow control/congestion information from the HiperSockets microcode
    to the af_iucv socket.
RX: Memory for incoming traffic is preallocated and passed to
    HiperSockets layer. If receiver is not capable to clean its buffers
    shared with HiperSockets and pass new memory to the HiperSockets
    layer this will cause flow control/congestion events on the
    sender.

c5e631a8d4 qeth: convert to hw_features part 2
Set rx csum default to hw checksumming again.
Remove sysfs interface for rx csum (checksumming) and TSO (large_send).
With the new hw_features it does not work to keep the old sysfs
interface in parallel. Convert options.checksum_type to new hw_features.

6298263ac0 qeth: IP address takeover flag setting
The qeth IP address flag setting is possible when device is
offline. When setting device online afterwards the current set
IP addresses have to be correctly registered with the device
regarding the IP address takeover attribute.

3fd434d846 qeth: allow dynamic change of rx checksumming
Technically there is no need to set the card offline to change
RX checksumming. Get rid of this stupid limitation.

c3b4a740db qeth: rework TSO functions
The maximum TSO size OSA can handle is 15 * PAGE_SIZE. This
patch reduces gso_max_size to this value and adds some sanity
checks and statistics to the TSO implementation.
Since only layer 3 is able to do TSO move all TSO related functions
to the qeth_l3 module.

cd023216e6 qeth module size reduction.
Replace complex macro for s390dbf calls by equivalent function. This reduces
module size about 10% without visible performance impact.
