The routine ipv6_rcv() uses magic number 0 for a return when it drops a
packet. This corresponds to NET_RX_SUCCESS, which is obviously
incorrect. Correct this by using NET_RX_DROP instead.
ps. It isn't exactly clear who the IPv6 maintainers are, apologies if
I've missed any.

when testing the jumbo frames with pages patch, the stats would
show rx_missed errors (dropped packets) even when connected to a
link partner with flow control enabled.
this indicates that for this MTU (9000) the flow control
thresholds are not adjusting correctly.
In fact, before this change, the FCRTH (xoff threshold) is 36864
when the fifo size is only 40000, with 9000 byte MTU.
fix it so that we at least have room for one frame after we send
the xoff.

This is code extremely similar to what is committed in e1000e
already.
e1000 will no longer request 32kB slab buffers to support jumbo
frames on PCI/PCI-X adapters. This will significantly reduce the
likelyhood of order:3 allocation failures.
This new code adds support for using pages as receive buffers,
and the driver will chain multiple pages together to build a
jumbo frame for OS consumption.
The hardware takes a power of two buffer size and will
dump as much data as it can receive into 1 or more buffers.
The benefits of applying this are
1) stop akpm's dissing :-) of this lame e1000 behavior [1]
2) more efficient memory allocation (half) when using jumbo
frames, which will also allow for much better socket utilization
with jumbos since the socket is charged for the full allocation
of each receive buffer, regardless of how much is used.
3) this was a feature request by a customer
4) copybreak for small packets < 256 bytes still applies

This patch allows on-the-fly adjustment of the interrupts per second generated
by e1000 devices 82545/82546 (hardware support of ITR register is a
requirement)
adjust using this command:
ethtool -C eth0 rx-usecs 10
where 10 is 10 microseconds per interrupt interval, so 10 = 100,000 interrupts
per second, and 125 = 8000 interrupts per second.
changes should be immediate.
1,3 are special values and indicate the automatic tuning mode to the driver,
where 1 is 4000-90000 interrupts per second and 3 is 4000-20000 interrupts
per second and is the driver default.

This patch converts the remaining occurences of raw return values to their
symbolic counterparts in ndo_start_xmit() functions that were missed by the
previous automatic conversion.
Additionally code that assumed the symbolic value of NETDEV_TX_OK to be zero
is changed to explicitly use NETDEV_TX_OK.

- Disable fcs stripping. The minimum frame size that can be received by the
hardware is 57 Bytes. A 64 Byte Ethernet frame with the vlan tag and fcs
stripped will result in a 56 Byte frame which will lock up the receive
engine. The work around is to disable fcs stripping in the hardware which
is done with a firmware upgrade. The fixes are -
1. Ensure that the correct firmware version is used.
2. Decrement the indicated packet length of the receive packet by 4 bytes
(FCS length).
