pasemi_mac: further performance tweaks
Misc driver tweaks for pasemi_mac:
* Increase ring size (really needed mostly on 10G)
* Take out an unneeded barrier
* Move around a few prefetches and reorder a few calls
* Don't try to clean on full tx buffer, just let things
take their course and stop the queue directly
* Avoid filling on the same line as the interface is
working on to reduce cache line bouncing
* Avoid unneeded clearing of software state (and make the
interface shutdown code handle it)
* Fix up some of the tx ring wrap logic.

pasemi_mac: add local skb alignment
Add local SKB alignment to pasemi_mac, since ppc64 in general has it at 0
because of design flaws in some of the IBM server bridge chips. However,
for PWRficient doing the unaligned copies is more expensive than doing
unaligned DMA so make sure the data is aligned instead.

pasemi_mac: workaround for erratum 5971
Implement workarounds for erratum 5971, where L2 hints aren't considered
properly unless the way hint is enabled on the interface. Since L2 isn't
setup to dedicate a way to headers, we need to reset the packet count
by hand so it won't run out of credits.

pasemi_mac: rework ring management
Rework ring management, switching to an opaque ring format instead of
the struct-based descriptor+pointer setup, since it will be needed for
SG support.

pasemi_mac: fix bug in receive buffer dma mapping
skb->len isn't actually set to the size of the allocated skb, so don't
try to use it when figuring out how much to map.
(This hasn't surfaced as a real bug because we effectively disable
translation for the interface, but it still needs fixing for the future)

This patch adds sta_notify callback and removes sta_table_notification
which was not used by any driver.
sta_notify() is essential for drivers that keeps notion of station
internally and need to be notified about removal or addition of a station
to the (I)BSS or assocation to an AP.
This version adds interface id to the parameter list
as suggested by Johannes Berg

This improves radiotap injection by removing the shortcut over TX handlers
that led to BUGS when injecting frames without setting a rate and also
resulted in various other quirks. Now, TX handlers are run but some
information that was present in the radiotap header is used instead of
automatic settings.

Currently, we have three RX handlers doing the decryption.
This patch changes it to have only one handler doing
everything, thereby getting rid of many duplicate checks.

This moves the sta_process RX handler to after decryption
so that frames that cannot be decrypted don't influence
statistics, it is likely that they were injected or something
else is totally wrong.

Since I cannot convince the lazy driver authors (hello Michael)
to stop (ab)using the MGMT interface type internally in their
drivers, this patch introduces a new _INVALID type especially
for their use and changes all affected drivers to use it.
