[PATCH v3 00/10] net/gve: fix DQO Tx queue stalls

[Tathagat Priyadarshi <tathagat.dpdk@gmail.com>]

This series fixes several ways the gve DQO RDA Tx path can stall or
post invalid descriptors: completion handling bugs (1-2), a report
event interval that can starve the ring (3), a stray TSO context
descriptor when completion tags run out (4), a missing cacheline
margin (5), invalid packets blocking the burst (6-8), and missing
device length checks (9-10).

v3:
- Split the series into one fix per patch, per review feedback.
  The code is the same as v2 except where noted below.
- 1/10, 2/10: v2 1/4, split in two. Kept Joshua's Ack.
- 3/10: v2 2/4 without the declaration reordering
  (per Joshua Washington) and without ringing the doorbell on each
  report event, which is a performance change to be sent separately
  with numbers (per Stephen Hemminger).
- 4/10: the completion tag reorder from v2 2/4, as its own patch.
  Fixes tag now points at the commit that made the tag pop fallible.
- 5/10: v2 3/4, unchanged. Kept Joshua's Ack.
- 6/10-10/10: v2 4/4, split:
  * Keep too_many_descs and add per-reason invalid_mbufs and
    invalid_pkts counters instead of a generic dropped_pkts
    (per Joshua Washington), and export them as xstats
    (per Stephen Hemminger).
  * Count sent packets after writing descriptors instead of
    subtracting drops (per Joshua Washington).
  * Move the length and TSO header checks into gve_tx_validate_pkt(),
    leaving gve_tx_validate_descs() to descriptor counts, without
    the declaration moves.
  * Reword the TSO length limit (per Stephen Hemminger) and shorten
    the commit messages.
- Stephen's Reviewed-by on v2 is not carried over because of the
  rework.
