Akihiko Odaki cff8ba243f e1000e: Fix TX dispatch condition
[ Upstream commit eed913f6919e253f35d454b2f115f2a4db2b741a ]

e1000_xmit_frame is expected to stop the queue and dispatch frames to
hardware if there is not sufficient space for the next frame in the
buffer, but sometimes it failed to do so because the estimated maximum
size of frame was wrong. As the consequence, the later invocation of
e1000_xmit_frame failed with NETDEV_TX_BUSY, and the frame in the buffer
remained forever, resulting in a watchdog failure.

This change fixes the estimated size by making it match with the
condition for NETDEV_TX_BUSY. Apparently, the old estimation failed to
account for the following lines which determines the space requirement
for not causing NETDEV_TX_BUSY:
    ```
    	/* reserve a descriptor for the offload context */
    	if ((mss) || (skb->ip_summed == CHECKSUM_PARTIAL))
    		count++;
    	count++;

    	count += DIV_ROUND_UP(len, adapter->tx_fifo_limit);
    ```

This issue was found when running http-stress02 test included in Linux
Test Project 20220930 on QEMU with the following commandline:
```
qemu-system-x86_64 -M q35,accel=kvm -m 8G -smp 8
	-drive if=virtio,format=raw,file=root.img,file.locking=on
	-device e1000e,netdev=netdev
	-netdev tap,script=ifup,downscript=no,id=netdev
```

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 Restructured Text 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.
