[RFC Patch net-next v2 0/8] r8169: add RSS (Receive Side Scaling) support for RTL8127

[javen]

From: Javen Xu <javen_xu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch series adds RSS (Receive Side Scaling) support for the r8169
ethernet driver, specifically for RTL8127 (RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_80).

RSS enables packet distribution across multiple receive queues, which can
significantly improve network throughput on multi-core systems by allowing
parallel processing of incoming packets.

Key features:
- Multi-queue RX support (up to 8 queues)
- MSI-X interrupt with vector mapping
- Dynamic queue configuration via ethtool (-L)
- RSS hash computation for flow classification
- NETIF_F_RXHASH feature support

Javen Xu (8):
  r8169: add some register definitions
  r8169: add support for multi irqs
  r8169: add support for multi rx queues
  r8169: add support for new interrupt mapping
  r8169: enable new interrupt mapping
  r8169: add support and enable rss
  r8169: move struct ethtool_ops
  r8169: add support for ethtool
