This new firmware fixes several minor bugs:
1. In switch dependent mode, DCB priority was used to override inner vlan
priority.
2. In switch dependent mode, inner vlan was added in case of DCB priority
even if outer vlan was present.
3. In switch dependent mode, outer vlan was overridden by DCB priority when
working in STATIC COS mode while inner vlan was present.
4. iSCSI - under heavy iSCSI traffic, when TCP out-of-order condition
occurred, it was possible for the connection to close and recover.
5. iSCSI - connections on-chip TCP establishment might have failed.
6. iSCSI - out-of-order isles might have caused on-chip TCP connections
to fail in their graceful termination.
7. iSCSI - there was a theoretical race in which an RST packet sent from
pure-ack queue in specific timing could cause a credit-return overflow.
8. iSCSI - not all packets were completed on a forward channel.
9. DCB - fixed for 4-port devices; Until now, wrong credit counters were
used, causing dcb to fail.
10. Fixed false parity reported in CAM memories when operating near -5% on
the 1.0V core supply.
11. ETS default settings are set to fairness between traffic classes (rather
than strict priority), and uses the same chip receive buffer configuration
for both PFC and pause.

Although the newest firmware for the RTL8192SU, which is found in vendor
driver rtl8188C_8192C_8192D_usb_linux_v3.4.2_3727.20120404, works with most
devices, it causes drops of the wireless connection for the ASUS WL-167G V3
(USB ID 0b05:1791), the D-Link DWA131 (07d1:3303), and probably others.
Tests show that the firmware from vendor driver
rtl8712_8188_8191_8192SU_usb_linux_v7_0.20100831 works better.
This commerts reverts to that older firmware.

This new FW adds support in AFEX mode (multifunction using vntag
header).
It also fixes following issues:
1. Theoretical bug in GRO acceleration (only if the GRO Segment Length
is a multiple of the SGE Size). This will allow removing the
workaround from the driver.
2. When a TPA aggregation is open and a packet is accepted with
timestamp OOO, the new packet begins a new aggregation instead of
being indicated separately.
