+Subject: [PATCH 09/19] net: ena: limit refill Rx threshold to 256 to avoid
+ latency issues
+Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/0574bb806dad29a3dada0ee42b01645477d48282
+
+Currently Rx refill is done when the number of required descriptors is
+above 1/8 queue size. With a default of 1024 entries per queue the
+threshold is 128 descriptors.
+There is intention to increase the queue size to 8196 entries.
+In this case threshold of 1024 descriptors is too large and can hurt
+latency.
+Add another limitation to Rx threshold to be at most 256 descriptors.
