Subject: e1000e: Cleanup handling of VLAN_HLEN as a part of max frame size

From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@redhat.com>

commit 8084b86dcfbc4b4822868c1dbdb429b5c08154e2 upstream.

When the VLAN_HLEN was added to the calculation for the maximum frame size
there seems to have been a number of issues added to the driver.

The first issue is that in some cases the maximum frame size for a device
never really reached the actual maximum frame size as the VLAN header
length was not included the calculation for that value.  As a result some
parts only supported a maximum frame size of either 1496 in the case of
parts that didn't support jumbo frames, and 8996 in the case of the parts
that do.

The second issue is the fact that there were several checks that weren't
updated so as a result setting an MTU of 1500 was treated as enabling jumbo
frames as the calculated value was 1522 instead of 1518.  I have addressed
those by replacing ETH_FRAME_LEN with VLAN_ETH_FRAME_LEN where appropriate.

The final issue was the fact that lowering the MTU below 1500 would cause
the driver to allocate 2K buffers for the rings.  This is an old issue that
was fixed several years ago in igb/ixgbe and I am addressing now by just
replacing == with a <= so that we always just round up to 1522 for anything
that isn't a jumbo frame.
