Right now the mvneta driver doesn't handle Tx IRQ, and relies on two
mechanisms to flush Tx descriptors : a flush at the end of mvneta_tx()
and a timer. If a burst of packets is emitted faster than the device
can send them, then the queue is stopped until next wake-up of the
timer 10ms later. This causes jerky output traffic with bursts and
pauses, making it difficult to reach line rate with very few streams.
A test on UDP traffic shows that it's not possible to go beyond 134
Mbps / 12 kpps of outgoing traffic with 1500-bytes IP packets. Routed
traffic tends to observe pauses as well if the traffic is bursty,
making it even burstier after the wake-up.
It seems that this feature was inherited from the original driver but
nothing there mentions any reason for not using the interrupt instead,
which the chip supports.
Thus, this patch enables Tx interrupts and removes the timer. It does
the two at once because it's not really possible to make the two
mechanisms coexist, so a split patch doesn't make sense.
First tests performed on a Mirabox (Armada 370) show that less CPU
seems to be used when sending traffic. One reason might be that we now
call the mvneta_tx_done_gbe() with a mask indicating which queues have
been done instead of looping over all of them.
The same UDP test above now happily reaches 987 Mbps / 87.7 kpps.
Single-stream TCP traffic can now more easily reach line rate. HTTP
transfers of 1 MB objects over a single connection went from 730 to
840 Mbps. It is even possible to go significantly higher (>900 Mbps)
by tweaking tcp_tso_win_divisor.

Marvell has not published the chip's datasheet yet, so it's very hard
to find the relevant bits to manipulate to change the IRQ behaviour.
Fortunately, these bits are described in the proprietary LSP patch set
which is publicly available here :
http://www.plugcomputer.org/downloads/mirabox/
So let's put them back in the driver in order to reduce the burden of
current and future maintenance.

Ben Hutchings attempted to propose a better fix consisting in using a
scheduled work for this, but while it fixed this panic, it caused other
random freezes and panics proving that the reset sequence in the driver
is unreliable and that additional fixes should be investigated.
When sending multiple streams over a link limited to 100 Mbps, Tx timeouts
happen from time to time, and the driver correctly recovers only when the
function is disabled.

Stats writers are mvneta_rx() and mvneta_tx(). They don't lock anything
when they update the stats, and as a result, it randomly happens that
the stats freeze on SMP if two updates happen during stats retrieval.
This is very easily reproducible by starting two HTTP servers and binding
each of them to a different CPU, then consulting /proc/net/dev in loops
during transfers, the interface should immediately lock up. This issue
also randomly happens upon link state changes during transfers, because
the stats are collected in this situation, but it takes more attempts to
reproduce it.
The comments in netdevice.h suggest using per_cpu stats instead to get
rid of this issue.
This patch implements this. It merges both rx_stats and tx_stats into
a single "stats" member with a single syncp. Both mvneta_rx() and
mvneta_rx() now only update the a single CPU's counters.
In turn, mvneta_get_stats64() does the summing by iterating over all CPUs
to get their respective stats.
With this change, stats are still correct and no more lockup is encountered.
Note that this bug was present since the first import of the mvneta
driver. It might make sense to backport it to some stable trees. If
so, it depends on "d33dc73 net: mvneta: increase the 64-bit rx/tx stats
out of the hot path".

The Tx head write-back registers are not cleared during an FLR or VF reset.
As a result a configuration that had head write-back enabled can leave the
registers set after the driver is unloaded. If the next driver loaded doesn't
use the write-back registers this can lead to a bad configuration where
head write-back is enabled, but the driver didn't request it.
To avoid this situation the PF should be resetting the Tx head write-back
registers when the VF requests a reset.

Refactor the deletion/update of prefix routes when removing an
address. Now also consider IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE and if there is an address
present with this flag, to not cleanup the route. Instead, assume
that userspace is taking care of this route.
Also perform the same cleanup, when userspace changes an existing address
to add NOPREFIXROUTE (to an address that didn't have this flag). This is
done because when the address was added, a prefix route was created for it.
Since the user now wants to handle this route by himself, we cleanup this
route.
This cleanup of the route is not totally robust. There is no guarantee,
that the route we are about to delete was really the one added by the
kernel. This behavior does not change by the patch, and in practice it
should work just fine.

The bnx2x driver in its pci shutdown() callback releases its pci bars (in the
same manner it does during its pci remove() callback).
During a system reboot while VFs are enabled, its possible for the VF's remove
to be called (as a result of pci_disable_sriov()) after its shutdown callback
has already finished running; This will cause a paging request fault as the VF
tries to access the pci bar which it has previously released, crashing the
system.
This patch further differentiates the shutdown and remove callbacks, preventing the
pci release procedures from being called during shutdown.

This patch cleans-up wake-on-lan code in the following ways:
1) Removes some driver hacks in be_cmd_get_acpi_wol_cap() that were based
on incorrect assumptions.
2) Uses the adapter->wol_en and wol_cap variables for checking if WoL
is supported and enabled on an interface instead of referring to the
exclusion list via the macro be_is_wol_supported()
