Julian Wiedmann 7d969d2e88 s390/qeth: size calculation outbound buffers
Depending on the device type, hard_start_xmit() builds different output
buffer formats. For instance with HiperSockets, on both L2 and L3 we
strip the ETH header from the skb - L3 doesn't need it, and L2 carries
it in the buffer's header element.
For this, we pass data_offset = ETH_HLEN all the way down to
__qeth_fill_buffer(), where skb->data is then adjusted accordingly.
But the initial size calculation still considers the *full* skb length
(including the ETH header). So qeth_get_elements_no() can erroneously
reject a skb as too big, even though it would actually fit into an
output buffer once the ETH header has been trimmed off later.

Fix this by passing an additional offset to qeth_get_elements_no(),
that indicates where in the skb the on-wire data actually begins.
Since the current code uses data_offset=-1 for some special handling
on OSA, we need to clamp data_offset to 0...

On HiperSockets this helps when sending ~MTU-size skbs with weird page
alignment. No change for OSA or AF_IUCV.

README

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.
