From: Yi Zou <yi.zou@xxxxxxxxx>
This adds fcoe_ddp_min as a module parameter for fcoe module to:
/sys/module/fcoe/parameters/ddp_min
It is observed that for some hardware, particularly Intel 82599, there is too
much overhead in setting up context for direct data placement (DDP) read when
the requested read I/O size is small. This is added as a module parameter for
performance tuning and is set as 0 by default and user can change this based
on their own hardware.
