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)

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.

The kernel now provides a generic hexdump implementation should we need
it again, so we can remove it from zd1211rw. After removing that, only
one single-user function is left in zd_util. Move that to zd_mac and
remove zd_util.

As detailed at https://bugs.gentoo.org/159646 hostap with hostapd confuses
udev by presenting 2 interfaces with the same MAC address. Also, at the time
of detection, the 'type' attribute is 1, identical to other hostap interfaces.
The AP interface is supposed to have type ARPHRD_IEEE80211 (801), but this is
not set until after registration.
Setting it before register_netdev() is called allows us to avoid this
confusion. We can do this by propogating the HOSTAP_INTERFACE type through
to hostap_setup_dev().

This is a follow up to the patches from Denys Vlasenkos
<vda.linux@googlemail.com> to further optimize firmware loading.
1. In bnx2_init_cpus(), we allocate memory for decompression once
and use it repeatedly instead of doing this for every firmware image.
2. We eliminate the BSS and SBSS firmware sections in bnx2_fw*.h since
these are always zeros.

Hi,
this are the changes to the smc911x driver, which were necessary
to get it running on the Magic Panel R2 (smsc9115).
It is a SH3-DSP based board. The other patches are available on
the linuxsh-dev mailinglist.

It was necessary to set the irq sense to low level.
Therefor the SMC_IRQ_SENSE define was added.
How are the chances for inclusion in 2.6.24?

Previously, bitbanged MDIO was only supported in individual
hardware-specific drivers. This code factors out the higher level
protocol implementation, reducing the hardware-specific portion to
functions setting direction, data, and clock.
