This reorders and duplicates some wording, but should make no
substantive changes.

/**
* struct ethtool_coalesce - coalescing parameters of chip
* @cmd: ETHTOOL_{G,S}COALESCE
* @rx_coalesce_usecs: How many usecs to delay an RX interrupt after
* a packet arrives. If 0, only @rx_max_coalesced_frames is used.
* @rx_max_coalesced_frames: How many packets to delay an RX interrupt
* after a packet arrives. If 0, only @rx_coalesce_usecs is used.
* @rx_coalesce_usecs_irq: Same as @rx_coalesce_usecs, except that
* this value applies while an IRQ is being serviced by the host.
* @rx_max_coalesced_frames_irq: Same as @rx_max_coalesced_frames,
* except that this value applies while an IRQ is being serviced
* by the host.
* @tx_coalesce_usecs: How many usecs to delay a TX interrupt after
* a packet is sent. If 0, only @tx_max_coalesced_frames
* is used.
* @tx_max_coalesced_frames: How many packets to delay a TX interrupt
* after a packet is sent. If 0, only @tx_coalesce_usecs is
* used.
* @tx_coalesce_usecs_irq: Same as @tx_coalesce_usecs, except that
* this value applies while an IRQ is being serviced by the host.
* @tx_max_coalesced_frames_irq: Same as @tx_max_coalesced_frames,
* except that this value applies while an IRQ is being serviced
* by the host.
* @stats_block_coalesce_usecs: How many usecs to delay in-memory
* statistics block updates. Some drivers do not have an
* in-memory statistic block, and in such cases this value is
* ignored. This value must not be zero.
* @use_adaptive_rx_coalesce: Enable adaptive RX coalescing.
* @use_adaptive_tx_coalesce: Enable adaptive TX coalescing.
* @pkt_rate_low: Threshold for low packet rate (packets per second).
* @rx_coalesce_usecs_low: How many usecs to delay an RX interrupt after
* a packet arrives, when the packet rate is below @pkt_rate_low.
* @rx_max_coalesced_frames_low: How many packets to delay an RX interrupt
* after a packet arrives, when the packet rate is below @pkt_rate_low.
* @tx_coalesce_usecs_low: How many usecs to delay a TX interrupt after
* a packet is sent, when the packet rate is below @pkt_rate_low.
* @tx_max_coalesced_frames_low: How many packets to delay a TX interrupt
* after a packet is sent, when the packet rate is below @pkt_rate_low.
* @pkt_rate_high: Threshold for high packet rate (packets per second).
* @rx_coalesce_usecs_high: How many usecs to delay an RX interrupt after
* a packet arrives, when the packet rate is above @pkt_rate_high.
* @rx_max_coalesced_frames_high: How many packets to delay an RX interrupt
* after a packet arrives, when the packet rate is above @pkt_rate_high.
* @tx_coalesce_usecs_high: How many usecs to delay a TX interrupt after
* a packet is sent, when the packet rate is above @pkt_rate_high.
* @tx_max_coalesced_frames_high: How many packets to delay a TX interrupt
* after a packet is sent, when the packet rate is above @pkt_rate_high.
* @rate_sample_interval: How often to do adaptive coalescing packet rate
* sampling, measured in seconds. Must not be zero.
*
* It is illegal to set both usecs and max frames to zero as this
* would cause interrupts to never be generated.
*
* Adaptive RX/TX coalescing is an algorithm implemented by some
* drivers to improve latency under low packet rates and improve
* throughput under high packet rates. Some drivers only implement
* one of RX or TX adaptive coalescing. Anything not implemented by
* the driver causes these values to be silently ignored.
*
* When the packet rate is below @pkt_rate_high but above
* @pkt_rate_low (both measured in packets per second) the
* normal {rx,tx}_* coalescing parameters are used.
