This patch series adds support for receive side coalescing for Cadence GEM driver. Receive segmentation coalescing is a mechanism to reduce CPU overhead. This is done by coalescing received TCP message segments together into a single large message. This means that when the message is complete the CPU only has to process the single header and act upon the one data payload.
