    iavf: validate tx_coalesce_usecs even if rx_coalesce_usecs is zero · a206d995
    Jacob Keller authored
    In __iavf_set_coalesce, the driver checks both ec->rx_coalesce_usecs and
    ec->tx_coalesce_usecs for validity. It does this via a chain if if/else-if
    blocks. If every single branch of the series of if statements exited, this
    would be fine. However, the rx_coalesce_usecs is checked against zero to
    print an informative message if use_adaptive_rx_coalesce is enabled. If
    this check is true, it short circuits the entire chain of statements,
    preventing validation of the tx_coalesce_usecs field.
    
    Indeed, since commit e792779e ("iavf: Prevent changing static ITR
    values if adaptive moderation is on") the iavf driver actually rejects any
    change to the tx_coalesce_usecs or rx_coalesce_usecs when
    use_adaptive_tx_coalesce or use_adaptive_rx_coalesce is enabled, making
    this checking a bit redundant.
    
    Fix this error by removing the unnecessary and redundant checks for
    use_adaptive_rx_coalesce and use_adaptive_tx_coalesce. Since zero is a
    valid value, and since the tx_coalesce_usecs and rx_coalesce_usecs fields
    are already unsigned, remove the minimum value check. This allows assigning
    an ITR value ranging from 0-8160 as described by the printed message.
