commit 00ff801bb8ce6711e919af4530b6ffa14a22390a upstream.
This patch fixes a bug that the moderation config will not be applied when calling mlx4_en_reset_config. For example, when turning on rx timestamping, mlx4_en_reset_config() will be called, causing the NIC to forget previous moderation config.
This fix is in phase with a previous fix: commit 79c54b6bbf06 ("net/mlx4_en: Fix TX moderation info loss after set_ringparam is called")
Tested: Before this patch, on a host with NIC using mlx4, run netserver and stream TCP to the host at full utilization. $ sar -I SUM 1 INTR intr/s 14:03:56 sum 48758.00
After rx hwtstamp is enabled: $ sar -I SUM 1 14:10:38 sum 317771.00 We see the moderation is not working properly and issued 7x more interrupts.
After the patch, and turned on rx hwtstamp, the rate of interrupts is as expected: $ sar -I SUM 1 14:52:11 sum 49332.00
