Calculating the BD entry using a modulus operation isn't optimal, especially
inside the loop. This patch removes the modulus operations in favour of:
i) simply checking for wrapping in the case of cur_rx
ii) forcing num_tx to be a power of two and using it to mask out the
entry from cur_tx
The also prevents possible issues related overflow of the cur_rx and cur_tx
counters.

MDIO read and write were checking whether a timeout had expired to determine
whether to recheck the result of the MDIO operation. Under heavy CPU usage,
however, it was possible for the timeout to expire before the routine got
around to be able to check a second time even, thus erroneousy returning an
-EBUSY.
This patch changes the the MDIO IO routines to try up to five times to complete
the operation before giving up, thus lessening the dependency on CPU load.
This resolves a problem whereby a ping flood would keep the CPU so busy that
the above problem would manifest itself; the MDIO command to check link status
would fail and the interface would erroneously be shut down.

The old interrupt handling was incorrect in that it did not account for the
fact that the interrupt source bits get set irregardless of whether or not
their corresponding mask is set. This patch fixes that by masking off the
source bits for masked interrupts.
Furthermore, the handling of transmission events is moved to the NAPI polling
handler alongside the reception handler, thus preventing a whole bunch of
interrupts during heavy traffic.

An interrupt may occur between checking bd.stat and clearing the
interrupt source register which would result in the packet going totally
unnoticed as the interrupt will be missed. Double check bd.stat after

Occasionally, it seems that some race is causing the interrupts to not be
reenabled otherwise with the end result that networking just stops working.
Enabling interrupts after calling napi_complete is more in line with what
other drivers do.

This patch adds the ability to describe ethernet devices via a flattened
device tree. As device tree remains an optional feature, these bits all
need to be guarded by CONFIG_OF ifdefs.
MAC address is settable via the device tree parameter "local-mac-address";
however, the selection of the phy id is limited to probing, for now.

The phy_mii_ioctl() function unnecessarily throws away the original ifreq.
We need access to the ifreq in order to support PHYs that can perform
hardware time stamping.
Two maverick drivers filter the ioctl commands passed to phy_mii_ioctl().
This is unnecessary since phylib will check the command in any case.

The point of using the devres resource management routines is that they
simplify the driver by taking care of releasing resources on failure and
release. A recent commit added a bunch of error handling that is unnecessary
in this context.
This patch removes this redundant error handling, as well as using
dmam_alloc_coherent in place of dma_alloc_coherent in order to use this
framework consistenly throughout the driver.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

when there is no dedicated buffer memory.
Some hardware designs may not have dedicated buffer memory such as

The driver expects three resources: one IORESOURCE_MEM resource defines the

IORESOURCE_MEM resource defines the network packet buffer space. The third
resource, of type IORESOURCE_IRQ, associates an interrupt with the driver.
