nv_probe() is never called in atomic context.
It calls dma_alloc_coherent() with GFP_ATOMIC, which is not necessary.
GFP_ATOMIC can be replaced with GFP_KERNEL.
This is found by a static analysis tool named DCNS written by myself.

In the xmit/rx fastpath, the function dma_map_single rarely fails.
Therefore, add an unlikely() optimization to this error check
conditional.

Since netif_carrier_on() will do nothing if device's
carrier is already on, so it's unnecessary to do
carrier status check.
It's the same for netif_carrier_off().

The ethtool api {get|set}_settings is deprecated.
We move this driver to new api {get|set}_link_ksettings.
As I don't have the hardware, I'd be very pleased if
someone may test this patch.

napi_complete_done() allows to opt-in for gro_flush_timeout,
added back in linux-3.19, commit 3b47d30396
("net: gro: add a per device gro flush timer")
This allows for more efficient GRO aggregation without
sacrifying latencies.

The network device operation for reading statistics is only called
in one place, and it ignores the return value. Having a structure
return value is potentially confusing because some future driver could
incorrectly assume that the return value was used.
Fix all drivers with ndo_get_stats64 to have a void function.

Convert a call to init_timer and accompanying intializations of
the timer's data and function fields to a call to setup_timer.
The Coccinelle semantic patch that fixes this problem is
as follows:
// <smpl>

expression t,f,d;
@@
-init_timer(&t);
+setup_timer(&t,f,d);
-t.data = d;
-t.function = f;

Forcedeth currently uses disable_irq_lockdep and enable_irq_lockdep, which in
some configurations simply calls local_irq_disable. This causes errant warnings
in the netpoll path as in netpoll_send_skb_on_dev, where we disable irqs using
local_irq_save, leading to the following warning:

Fix it by modifying the forcedeth code to use

which saves and restores irq state properly. This also saves us a little code

This howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configure
ISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementation
of PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point where
it has been well over a decade since I last updated it. And there is
no value in anyone else taking over updating it either.
However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate text
from one Kconfig file into the next. We are not doing end users any
favours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it with
fire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread.
No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text.
