when using a fixed antenna we should use the antenna number in all tx
descriptors, otherwise the hardware will sometimes send the frame out on the
other antenna. it seems like the hardware does not always respect the default
antenna and diversity settings (esp. AR5K_STA_ID1_DEFAULT_ANTENNA).
also i would like to note that antenna diversity does not always work correctly
on 5414 (at least) when only one antenna is connected: for example all frames
might be received on antenna A but still the HW tries to send on antenna B some
times, causing packet loss.
this is both verified with the antenna statistics output of the previous patch
and a spectrum analyzer.

The ieee->networks consists of 128 struct libipw_network entries. If
we allocate this chunk of memory altogether, it ends up with an
order 4 page allocation. High order page allocation is likely to fail
on system high load. This patch splits the big chunk memory allocation
into small pieces, each is 344 bytes, allocates them with 128 times.
The patch fixed bug http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14989

Remove the KSEG1ADDR define from rt2x00soc.h as it redefines and covers the
correct one from the arch/mips/include/asm/addrspace.h. Otherwise the driver
oopses on the target platform (Ralink rt3050 board).

For promiscuous mode, driver send request to device for deleting
multicast addresses and again it send request for adding them back
while exiting from this mode, this is bad for performance.
Just setting device in promiscuous mode is enough, no need to del/add
multicast addresses.

Kernel default tx csum function (ethtool_op_get_tx_csum) doesn't show
correct csum status. It takes various FLAGS (NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM) in account
to show tx csum status, which driver doesn't set while disabling tx csum.

When PCI functions are virtuialized in applications by assigning PCI
functions to VM (PCI passthrough), the be2net driver in the VM sees a
different function number. So, use of PCI function number in any
calculation will break existing code. This patch takes care of it.

If we were unable to detect a PHY on any of the MDIO bus id we tried instead of
bailing out with -ENODEV, assume the MAC is connected to a switch and use MDIO
bus 0. This unbreaks quite a lot of devices out there whose switch cannot be
detected.

Despite what the comment above CPMAC_SKB_SIZE says, the hardware also
needs to account for the FCS length in a received frame. This patch fix
the receiving of 802.1q frames which have 4 more bytes. While at it
unhardcode the definition and use the one from if_vlan.h.

"skb" is alway non-null here, but even if it were null the check isn't
needed because dev_kfree_skb() can handle it.
This eliminates a smatch warning about dereferencing a variable before
checking that it is non-null.

Currently s2io is dumping debug messages using the interface name
before it was allocated, showing a message like the following:
s2io: eth%d: Ring Mem PHY: 0x7ef80000
s2io: s2io_reset: Resetting XFrame card eth%d
This patch just fixes it, printing the pci bus information for
the card instead of the interface name.

My previous patch (655ffee284) added locking in
a bad way. Because rndis_set_oid can sleep, there is need to prepare multicast
addresses into local buffer under netif_addr_lock first, then call
rndis_set_oid outside. This caused reorganizing of the whole function.
