DSA is currently registering one packet_type function per EtherType it
needs to intercept in the receive path of a DSA-enabled Ethernet device.
Right now we have three of them: trailer, DSA and eDSA, and there might
be more in the future, this will not scale to the addition of new
protocols.
This patch proceeds with adding a new layer of abstraction and two new
functions:
dsa_switch_rcv() which will dispatch into the tag-protocol specific
receive function implemented by net/dsa/tag_*.c
dsa_slave_xmit() which will dispatch into the tag-protocol specific
transmit function implemented by net/dsa/tag_*.c
When we do create the per-port slave network devices, we iterate over
the switch protocol to assign the DSA-specific receive and transmit
operations.
A new fake ethertype value is used: ETH_P_XDSA to illustrate the fact
that this is no longer going to look like ETH_P_DSA or ETH_P_TRAILER
like it used to be.
This allows us to greatly simplify the check in eth_type_trans() and
always override the skb->protocol with ETH_P_XDSA for Ethernet switches
tagged protocol, while also reducing the number repetitive slave
netdevice_ops assignments.

The sungem driver has "phy_read()" and "phy_write()" functions, which
we need to rename because the generic phy layer is about to export
generic interfaces with the same name.

Unfortunately, the USB gadget layer has this weird things where NULL
skbs are passed into ops->ndo_start_xmit() in order to trigger the
dev->wrap() calls to build packets.
This is completely outside of the allowable range of sane arguments
for the ndo_start_xmit method. All invocations of ndo_start_xmit()
should be with non-NULL SKB arguments.
Put back the direct call, but with a comment explaining how this
is not acceptable in the long term.

Some platforms have special bank registers which might be used to
select the correct clock or the right mode for Media Indepent Interface
controllers. Sometimes, it is also required to activate vcc regulators
in the right order to supply the ethernet controller at the right time.
This patch is an architecture refactoring of the arc-emac device driver.
It adds a new software design which allows to add specific platform
glue layer. Each platform has now its own module which performs custom
initialization and remove for the target and then calls to the
core driver.

When one tries to add eth as a port into team and that eth is already in
use by other rx_handler device (macvlan, bond, bridge, ...) a bug in
team_port_add() causes that IFF_TEAM_PORT flag is set before rx_handler
is registered. In between, netdev nofifier is called and
team_device_event() sees IFF_TEAM_PORT and thinks that rx_handler_data
pointer is set to team_port. But it isn't.
Fix this by reordering rx_handler register and IFF_TEAM_PORT priv flag
set so it is very similar to how bonding does this.

====================
bnx2x: `fixes' patch-series
This series contains mostly bug fixes, but never the less is intended
for `net-next' and not `net', as:
- Some of the fixes are quite insignificant [`VF clean statistics',
`ethtool -d might cause timeout in log'].
- Some only recently were submitted to `net-next' [`Fix timesync endianity'].
- Some are not usually compiled as part of the kernel [`Fix stop-on-error'].
Dave - please consider applying this series to `net-next'; If you prefer,
I can break this series into 2 parts [one for `net' and the other for
`net-next'] - but personally I don't see much benefit in it.

This introduces 2 new relaxations in the bnx2x driver regarding GRO:
1. Don't prevent SW GRO if HW GRO is disabled.
2. If all aggregations are disabled, when GRO configuration changes
there's no need to perform an inner-reload [since it will have no
actual effect].

This changes slightly the set of registers read during `ethtool -d'.
Without this change, it's possible the HW will generate a grc Attention which
will be logged into system logs as `grc timeout'.

As reported by Jesper Dangaard Brouer, for high packet rates the
overhead of having another indirect call in the TX path is
non-trivial.
There is the indirect call itself, and then there is all of the
reloading of the state to refetch the tail pointer value and
then write the device register.
Move to a more passive scheme, which requires very light modifications
to the device drivers.
The signal is a new skb->xmit_more value, if it is non-zero it means
that more SKBs are pending to be transmitted on the same queue as the
current SKB. And therefore, the driver may elide the tail pointer
update.
Right now skb->xmit_more is always zero.
