Dropped transmits are not common, but when they do occur, increasing
the transmit queue length often helps.

The ATA over Ethernet config query response contains a "buffer count"
field reflecting the AoE target's capacity to buffer incoming AoE
commands.
By taking the current value of this field into accound, we increase
performance throughput or avoid network congestion, when the value
has increased or decreased, respectively.

Users sometimes want to cause the aoe driver to forget a
particular previously discovered device when it is no longer
online. The aoetools provide an "aoe-flush" command that users
run to perform this administrative task. The changes below
provide the support needed in the driver.

The GPFS filesystem is an example of an aoe user that requires the
aoe driver to support I/O request sizes larger than the default.
Most users will not need large I/O request sizes, because they would
need to be split up into multiple AoE commands anyway.

The userland aoetools package includes an "aoe-stat" command that
can display a "payload size" column when the aoe driver exports
this information. Users can quickly see what amount of user data
is transferred inside each AoE command on the network, network
headers excluded.
