3.5.7.24 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 60e66fee56b2256dcb1dc2ea1b2ddcb6e273857d upstream.
RPS support is kind of broken on bnx2x, because only non LRO packets
get proper rx queue information. This triggers reorders, as it seems
bnx2x like to generate a non LRO packet for segment including TCP PUSH
flag : (this might be pure coincidence, but all the reorders I've
seen involve segments with a PUSH)

We must call skb_record_rx_queue() to properly give to RPS (and more
generally for TX queue selection on forward path) the receive queue
information.
Similar fix is needed for skb_mark_napi_id(), but will be handled
in a separate patch to ease stable backports.
