Merge branch 's390-qeth-updates'

Julian Wiedmann says:

====================
s390/qeth: updates 2018-07-19

please apply one more round of qeth patches to net-next.
This brings additional performance improvements for the transmit code,
and some refactoring to pave the way for using netdev_priv.
Also, two minor fixes for rare corner cases.
====================
