It appears that under certain circumstances, a race will result
in a double-free of an skb. This patch null's out the skb pointer
upon the skb free, avoiding the inadvertent deref of bogus data.
The next patch fixes the actual race.

This patch separates the hardware descriptor state from the

This compiles and boots and seems to work.

As of 2.6.20-git4, the spider_net driver does not compile.
This appears to be due to some archaic usage involving kobjects.
It also fixes a nasty double-free during ifdown of the interface.

This version moves the medium variable to the card specific structure and
changes the GMII_* to BCM54XX_* #defines.
This patch adds improved version of enable_fiber for both the 5421 and
the 5461 phy. It is now possible to specify with these wether you want
autonegotiation or not. This is needed for bladecenter switches where
some expect autonegotiation and some dont seem to like this at all.
Depending on this flag it sets phy->autoneg accordingly for the fiber mode.
More importantly it implements proper read_link and poll_link functions
for both phys which can handle both copper and fiber mode by determining
the medium first and then branching to the required functions. For fiber
they all work fine, for copper they are not tested but return the result
of the genmii_* function anyway which is supposed to work.
The patch moves the genmii_* functions around to avoid foreward declarations.

i.e. they cannot handle TSO headers bigger than 80 bytes. Rename
TG3_FL2_HW_TSO_1_BUG to TG3_FL2_TSO_BUG and set this flag on
these chips as well.

"e1000 is not working anymore. ifup fails permanentely.
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready
nothing else"
The broken commit was identified with "git bisect".
Auke Kok says:
"I think we need to drop this now. The report that says that this
*fixes* something might have been on regular interrupts only. I
currently suspect that it breaks all MSI interrupts, which would make
sense if I look a the code. Very bad indeed."

This patch provides code paths which allow the natsemi driver to use the
external MII port on the chip but ignore any PHYs that may be attached to it.
The link state will be left as it was when the driver started and can be
configured via ethtool. Any PHYs that are present can be accessed via the MII
ioctl()s.
This is useful for systems where the device is connected without a PHY
or where either information or actions outside the scope of the driver
are required in order to use the PHYs.
