The IRQ coalescing config currently reside only inside struct
idpf_q_vector. However, all idpf_q_vector structs are de-allocated and
re-allocated during resets. This leads to user-set coalesce configuration
to be lost.

Add new fields to struct idpf_vport_user_config_data to save the user
settings and re-apply them after reset.

Hi Ahmed,

I am wondering if this patch also preserves coalescing settings in the case
where.

1. User sets coalescence for n queues
2. The number of queues is reduced, say to m (where m < n)
3. The user then increases the number of queues, say back to n

It seems to me that in this scenario it's reasonable to preserve
the settings for queues 0 to m, bit not queues m + 1 to n.

But perhaps this point is orthogonal to this change.
I am unsure.

Hi Simon,

I just did a quick test and it seems new settings are preserved in the 
above scenario: all n queues have the new coalescing settings.

Agreed, but let me know if it is a showstopper.

Hi Ahmed,

Thanks for looking into this.

If preserving the status of all n queues, rather than just the first m
queues, in the scenario described above is new behaviour added by this
patch then I would lean towards yes. Else no.

I don't believe we can call this new behavior. Actually, the napi IRQ
