Based on work by Neil Turton <nturton@solarflare.com> and Kieran Mansley <kmansley@solarflare.com>. The BIU has now been verified to handle 3- and 4-dword writes within a single 128-bit register correctly. This means we can enable write- combining and only insert write barriers between writes to distinct registers. This has been observed to save about 0.5 us when pushing a TX descriptor to an empty TX queue. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>
