This patch updates the dequeueing logic to dequeue all requests at once. Since we can have many requests in the queue, the interrupt coalescing is kept so that the ring interrupt fires every EIP197_MAX_BATCH_SZ at most. To allow dequeueing all requests at once while still using reasonable settings for the interrupt coalescing, the result handling function was updated to setup the threshold interrupt when needed (i.e. when more requests than EIP197_MAX_BATCH_SZ are in the queue). When using this capability the ring is marked as busy so that the dequeue function enqueue new requests without setting the threshold interrupt.

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.
