Bobby Eshleman 8443c31608 net: netmem: remove NET_IOV_MAX from net_iov_type enum 
Remove the NET_IOV_MAX workaround from the net_iov_type enum. This entry
was previously added to force the enum size to unsigned long to satisfy
the NET_IOV_ASSERT_OFFSET static assertions.

After commit f3d85c9ee5 ("netmem: introduce struct netmem_desc
mirroring struct page") this approach became unnecessary by placing the
net_iov_type after the netmem_desc. Placing the net_iov_type after
netmem_desc results in the net_iov_type size having no effect on the
position or layout of the fields that mirror the struct page.

The layout before this patch:

struct net_iov {
	union {
		struct netmem_desc desc;                 /*     0    48 */
		struct {
			long unsigned int _flags;        /*     0     8 */
			long unsigned int pp_magic;      /*     8     8 */
			struct page_pool * pp;           /*    16     8 */
			long unsigned int _pp_mapping_pad; /*    24     8 */
			long unsigned int dma_addr;      /*    32     8 */
			atomic_long_t pp_ref_count;      /*    40     8 */
		};                                       /*     0    48 */
	};                                               /*     0    48 */
	struct net_iov_area *      owner;                /*    48     8 */
	enum net_iov_type          type;                 /*    56     8 */

	/* size: 64, cachelines: 1, members: 3 */
};

The layout after this patch:

struct net_iov {
	union {
		struct netmem_desc desc;                 /*     0    48 */
		struct {
			long unsigned int _flags;        /*     0     8 */
			long unsigned int pp_magic;      /*     8     8 */
			struct page_pool * pp;           /*    16     8 */
			long unsigned int _pp_mapping_pad; /*    24     8 */
			long unsigned int dma_addr;      /*    32     8 */
			atomic_long_t pp_ref_count;      /*    40     8 */
		};                                       /*     0    48 */
	};                                               /*     0    48 */
	struct net_iov_area *      owner;                /*    48     8 */
	enum net_iov_type          type;                 /*    56     4 */

	/* size: 64, cachelines: 1, members: 3 */
	/* padding: 4 */
};

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
