Device tree aware EMAC driver
Based on BenH's earlier work, this is a new version of the EMAC driver
for the built-in ethernet found on PowerPC 4xx embedded CPUs. The
same ASIC is also found in the Axon bridge chip. This new version is
designed to work in the arch/powerpc tree, using the device tree to
probe the device, rather than the old and ugly arch/ppc OCP layer.
This driver is designed to sit alongside the old driver (that lies in
drivers/net/ibm_emac and this one in drivers/net/ibm_newemac). The
old driver is left in place to support arch/ppc until arch/ppc itself
reaches its final demise (not too long now, with luck).
This driver still has a number of things that could do with cleaning
up, but I think they can be fixed up after merging. Specifically:
- Should be adjusted to properly use the dma mapping API.
Axon needs this.
- Probe logic needs reworking, in conjuction with the general
probing code for of_platform devices. The dependencies here between
EMAC, MAL, ZMII etc. make this complicated. At present, it usually
works, because we initialize and register the sub-drivers before the
EMAC driver itself, and (being in driver code) runs after the devices
themselves have been instantiated from the device tree.

- The adapter will automatically recover from uncorrectable ECC errors.
Packets containing corrupted data will be dropped (not transmitted) or tagged

- The adapter cannot recover from any internal state machine errors. A state
machine error requires a device reset.
- Any internal error that could potentially result in .store trampling.
(undesirable PCI behaviour)is tagged as a "serious error". In such cases
the adapter will give up its ability to be a bus master. In this situation
the host will still be able to read internal device registers in order to
generate an error report. A device reset is necessary to return to normal
operation.
- In the event of a pcix data parity error, the adapter will automatically
disable itself. Adapter_En will automatically transition from '1' to '0' and
the adapter will enter its clean-up routine. Once the device has achieved
quiescence, an adapter reset should be performed.

Alarm interrupts are generated for a myriad of purposes, ranging from

recover gracefully from unexpected events; however, in some cases, a device
reset may be necessary. This patch handles alarms generated by all the
blocks within the device.
The adapter generates the following types of alarms:
1. Link state transitions (local/remote fault) or other link-related
problems.
2. Problems with any device peripherals, including the EEPROM, FLASH,
etc.
3. Correctable ECC errors (single-bit errors) on internal data
structures or frame data.
4. Uncorrectable ECC errors (multi-bit errors) on internal data
structures or frame data.
5. State machine errors, which indicate that internal control
structures have become corrupted.
6. PCI related errors, including parity errors or illegal transactions.
7. Other unexpected events.

PS3: changed the way to handle tx skbs
The PS3 virtual network device requires a vlan tag in the sending packet

As the vlan tag field is in the middle of the passed data,

To avoid copying much of the packet data, the driver used two tx descriptors
for one tx skb; one descriptor was for sending a small static
buffer which contained vlan tag and copied header (two mac addresses),
one was for the residual data after the vlan field.
This patch changes the way to insert the vlan tag. By changing

fields in the skb buffer. Then we can send one tx skb with

pasemi_mac: Stop using the pci config space accessors for register read/writes
Move away from using the pci config access functions for simple register
access. Our device has all of the registers in the config space (hey,
from the hardware point of view it looks reasonable :-), so we need to
somehow get to it. Newer firmwares have it in the device tree such that
we can just get it and ioremap it there (in case it ever moves in future
products). For now, provide a hardcoded fallback for older firmwares.

Use the PCI layer config access functions. The driver was using the
memory mapped window in device, to workaround issues accessing the
advanced error reporting registers.

Use the kernel interfaces for advanced error reporting.
This should be cleaner and clear up errors on boot.
For those systems with busted BIOS's that don't correctly
support mmconfig, advanced error reporting will be disabled.
The PCI registers for advanced error reporting start at 0x100 which
is too large to be accessed by legacy functions.

cxgb3 - Expose HW memory page info
A HW issue requires limiting the receive window size
to 23 pages of internal memory.
These pages can be configured to different sizes,
thus the RDMA driver needs to know the
page size to enforce the upper limit.
Also assign explicit enum values.

cxgb3 - use immediate data for offload Tx
Send small TX_DATA work requests as immediate data even when
there are fragments. this avoids doing multiple DMAs for
small fragmented packets.
The driver already implements this optimization for small
contiguous packets.

Reduce Rx coalescing length to 12288
Large bursts from the adapter to the host create back pressure
on the chip. Reducing the burst size avoids the issue.

ibmveth: Remove dead frag processing code
Removes dead frag processing code from ibmveth. Since NETIF_F_SG was
not set, this code was never executed. Also, since the ibmveth
interface can only handle 6 fragments, core networking code would need
to be modified in order to efficiently enable this support.
