[PATCH] e100: re-enable microcode with more useful defaults
For the four versions of hardware that we (currently) support microcode download on, the default configuration of our receive interrupt mitigation microcode was too aggressive, and caused unnecessary delays when pinging, and low(er) throughput on single connection latency sensitive performance tests. This code adds microcode support, and sets the defaults to more reasonable settings. It also explains the functionality in the code in more detail. Compile and load tested, shows expected behavior for slight delay of ping packets (1-2ms) when ucode is loaded, and decent interrupt moderation for small packets, while maintaining good throughput.

+* CPUSaver parameters
+*
+* All CPUSaver parameters are 16-bit literals that are part of a
+* "move immediate value" instruction. By changing the value of
+* the literal in the instruction before the code is loaded, the
+* driver can change the algorithm.
+*
+* INTDELAY - This loads the dead-man timer with its inital value.
+* When this timer expires the interrupt is asserted, and the
+* timer is reset each time a new packet is received. (see
+* BUNDLEMAX below to set the limit on number of chained packets)
+* The current default is 0x600 or 1536. Experiments show that
+* the value should probably stay within the 0x200 - 0x1000.
+*
+* BUNDLEMAX -
+* This sets the maximum number of frames that will be bundled. In
+* some situations, such as the TCP windowing algorithm, it may be
+* better to limit the growth of the bundle size than let it go as
+* high as it can, because that could cause too much added latency.
+* The default is six, because this is the number of packets in the
+* default TCP window size. A value of 1 would make CPUSaver indicate
+* an interrupt for every frame received. If you do not want to put
+* a limit on the bundle size, set this value to xFFFF.
+*
+* BUNDLESMALL -
+* This contains a bit-mask describing the minimum size frame that
+* will be bundled. The default masks the lower 7 bits, which means
+* that any frame less than 128 bytes in length will not be bundled,
+* but will instead immediately generate an interrupt. This does
+* not affect the current bundle in any way. Any frame that is 128
+* bytes or large will be bundled normally. This feature is meant
+* to provide immediate indication of ACK frames in a TCP environment.
+* Customers were seeing poor performance when a machine with CPUSaver
+* enabled was sending but not receiving. The delay introduced when
+* the ACKs were received was enough to reduce total throughput, because
+* the sender would sit idle until the ACK was finally seen.
+*
+* The current default is 0xFF80, which masks out the lower 7 bits.
+* This means that any frame which is x7F (127) bytes or smaller
+* will cause an immediate interrupt. Because this value must be a
+* bit mask, there are only a few valid values that can be used. To
+* turn this feature off, the driver can write the value xFFFF to the
+* lower word of this instruction (in the same way that the other
+* parameters are used). Likewise, a value of 0xF800 (2047) would
+* cause an interrupt to be generated for every frame, because all
+* standard Ethernet frames are <= 2047 bytes in length.
