net/mlx5e: Add support for PCI relaxed ordering
The concept of Relaxed Ordering in the PCI Express environment allows
switches in the path between the Requester and Completer to reorder some
transactions just received before others that were previously enqueued.
In ETH driver, there is no question of write integrity since each memory
segment is written only once per cycle. In addition, the driver doesn't
access the memory shared with the hardware until the corresponding CQE
arrives indicating all PCI transactions are done.
Running TCP single stream over ConnectX-4 LX, ARM CPU on remote-numa has
300% improvement in the bandwidth.
With relaxed ordering turned off: BW:10 [GB/s]
With relaxed ordering turned on: BW:40 [GB/s]
The driver turns relaxed ordering with respect to the firmware
capabilities and the return value from pcie_relaxed_ordering_enabled().
