Use netdev_alloc_skb for buffer allocation to allow for headroom.
This prevents bugs in code paths that assume extra space at the
front and makes sky2 behave like other drivers.

The code to handle cloned skb overwriting is unnecessary in the
sky2 driver and is buggy. The bug is that pskb_expand_head can change the
skb but the driver has already mapped in the header.
Since the sky2 hardware doesn't need to overwrite memory, the buggy
code can just be removed; it was mistakenly copied from the tg3
driver.

Some recent myri10ge firmwares support multicast filtering as well
as an extended mcp_irq_data structure (64 instead of 40 bytes).
The new command MXGEFW_CMD_SET_STATS_DMA_V2 is used to check
whether the firmware support those. mgp->fw_multicast_support
is defined accordingly.
When fw_multicast_support is set, some new multicast filtering
commands is passed to the board in myri10ge_set_multicast_list().

Add msg_enable and use netif_msg_link to enable/disable reporting
of link status changes since some Ethernet switches seem to generate
a lot of status changes under some circumstances and some people
want to avoid useless flooding in the logs.
Also add a counter for link status changes to statistics.

spectrum_cs: Fix the logic so we error when the device is *not* present!
This fixes firmware upload failures which prevent the driver from
working (the bug is also present in 2.6.17).

A change I made for 2.6.17 and another for 2.6.18 do not work on older
pcnet32 chips which I do not have access to. If the chip is a 79C970 or
79C965, do not try and suspend or check the link status.
I have tested with a 79C970A, 79C971, 79C972, 79C973, 79C975, 79C976,
and 79C978.

I am using a Xircom CEM33 pcmcia NIC which has occasional hardware problems.
If the netdev watchdog detects a transmit timeout, do_reset is called which
msleeps - this is illegal in atomic context.
This patch schedules the timeout handling as a workqueue item.

while playing with gcc 4.1 -Wextra warnings, I came across this one:
drivers/net/3c515.c:1027: warning: comparison of unsigned expression >= 0 is always true
Since i is unsigned the >= 0 check in the for loop is always true,
so we might spin there forever unless the if condition triggers.
Since i is only used in this loop, this patch changes it to
an integer.

Hi,
One of my recent changes broke C101 carrier handling, this patch
fixes it. Also fixes an old TX underrun checking bug.
2.6.18 material. Please apply.
Thanks.

This makes it possible for HW PHY-less boards to utilize PAL goodies. Generic
routines to connect to fixed PHY are provided, as well as ability to specify
software callback that fills up link, speed, etc. information into PHY
descriptor (the latter feature not tested so far).
