Having separate fields in sk_buff for TSO/UFO (tso_size/ufo_size) is not
going to scale if we add any more segmentation methods (e.g., DCCP). So
let's merge them.
They were used to tell the protocol of a packet. This function has been
subsumed by the new gso_type field. This is essentially a set of netdev
feature bits (shifted by 16 bits) that are required to process a specific
skb. As such it's easy to tell whether a given device can process a GSO
skb: you just have to and the gso_type field and the netdev's features
field.
I've made gso_type a conjunction. The idea is that you have a base type
(e.g., SKB_GSO_TCPV4) that can be modified further to support new features.
For example, if we add a hardware TSO type that supports ECN, they would
declare NETIF_F_TSO | NETIF_F_TSO_ECN. All TSO packets with CWR set would
have a gso_type of SKB_GSO_TCPV4 | SKB_GSO_TCPV4_ECN while all other TSO
packets would be SKB_GSO_TCPV4. This means that only the CWR packets need
to be emulated in software.

If a PCI bus error/fault triggers a PCI bus reset, attempts to get the
ethernet packet count statistics from the hardware will fail, returning
garbage data upstream. This patch skips statistics data collection if the
PCI device is not on the bus.
This patch presumes that an earlier patch,
[PATCH] PCI Error Recovery: e1000 network device driver
has already been applied.

Various PCI bus errors can be signaled by newer PCI controllers.
This patch adds the PCI error recovery callbacks to the intel gigabit
ethernet e1000 device driver. The patch has been tested, and appears
to work well.

It was brought to our attention that the prefetches break e1000 traffic
on xscale/arm architectures. Remove them for now. We'll let them
stay in mm for a while, or find a better solution to enable.

New code added in 2.6.17 caused setup_irq to print a warning when
running ethtool -t eth0 offline.
This test marks the request_irq call made by this test as a "probe"
to see if the interrupt is shared or not.

Someone was waaay too aggressive and removed e1000's reboot notifier
instead of porting it to the new way of the shutdown handler. This change
broke wake on lan. Add the shutdown handler back in using the same method
as e100 uses.

Remove multi-descriptor support from legacy recieve path
Add memory usage efficiency by using more correct size descriptors for
small MTU sizes and optimize using LPE for <= 1522 byte frame sizes
An extra performance fix that effected our TCP window size growth
as a receiver. Set our initial buffer to be 128 bytes instead of 256
to prevent over-socket charge when truesize is computed in the stack.
old way: truesize = 256 + l1 = 256 + 1460 = 1716
new way: truesize = 128 + l1 = 128 + 1460 = 1588
The magic value that we can't cross is 1648.
