net/mlx5e: Change VF representors' RQ type
The representors' RQ size was not large enough for them to achieve high enough performance, and therefore needed to be enlarged, while suffering a minimum hit to its memory usage. To achieve this the representors RQ size was increased, and its type was changed to be a striding RQ if it is supported. Towards that goal the following changes were made: * Extracted the sequence for setting the standard netdev's RQ parmas into a function * Replaced the sequence for setting the representor's RQ params with the standard sequence The impact of this change can be seen in the following measurements taken on a setup of a VM over a VF, connected to OVS via the VF representor, to an external host: Before current change: TCP Throughput [Gb/s] VM to external host ~ 7.2 With the current change (measured with a striding RQ): TCP Throughput [Gb/s] VM to external host ~ 23.5 Each representor now consumes 2 [MB] of memory for its packet buffers.
