pasemi_mac: performance tweaks
* Seems like we do better with a smaller RX ring, probably because chances of
still having the SKB cached are better
* Const-ify variables to get better code generation and fewer reloads
* Move prefetching around a little, and try to prefetch the whole SKB
* Set NETIF_F_HIGHDMA
* Misc other minor tweaks

pasemi_mac: Convert to new dma library
Convert the pasemi_mac driver to the new platform global DMA manaagement
library. This also does a couple of other minor cleanups w.r.t. channel
management.

pasemi: DMA engine management library
Introduce a DMA management library to manage the various DMA resources
on the PA Semi SoCs. Since several drivers need to allocate these shared
resources, provide some abstractions as well as allocation/free functions
for channels, etc.

pasemi_mac: Move register definitions to include/asm-powerpc
Move the common register formats and descriptor layouts from
drivers/net/pasemi_mac.h to include/asm-poewrpc/pasemi_dma.h
Previously only the ethernet driver was using them, but other drivers
are coming up that will also use them, so it makes sense to share the
constants.

When using larger MTU's sky2 driver changes from allocating one
data area, to using multiple pages. The threshold for this was based on
a heuristic where the cost of a single allocation is bigger than one
page. Since the allocator has changed, this heuristic is now incorrect;
instead just make the threshold be when the total size of the allocation
is greater than one page.

The sky2 driver was not aligning the IP header on receive buffers.
This workaround is only needed on hardware with broken FIFO, newer chips
without FIFO can just DMA to unaligned address.

On the systems that have cache incoherent DMA, including ARM, there
is a race condition between software allocating a new receive buffer
and hardware writing into a buffer. The two race on touching the last
Receive Frame Descriptor (RFD). It has its el-bit set and its next
link equal to 0. When hardware encounters this buffer it attempts to
write data to it and then update Status Word bits and Actual Count in
the RFD. At the same time software may try to clear the el-bit and
set the link address to a new buffer.
Since the entire RFD is once cache-line, the two write operations can
collide. This can lead to the receive unit stalling or interpreting
random memory as its receive area.
The fix is to set the el-bit on and the size to 0 on the next to last
buffer in the chain. When the hardware encounters this buffer it stops
and does not write to it at all. The hardware issues an RNR interrupt
with the receive unit in the No Resources state. Software can write
to the tail of the list because it knows hardware will stop on the
previous descriptor that was marked as the end of list.
Once it has a new next to last buffer prepared, it can clear the el-bit
and set the size on the previous one. The race on this buffer is safe
since the link already points to a valid next buffer and the software
can handle the race setting the size (assuming aligned 16 bit writes
are atomic with respect to the DMA read). If the hardware sees the
el-bit cleared without the size set, it will move on to the next buffer
and skip this one. If it sees the size set but the el-bit still set,
it will complete that buffer and then RNR interrupt and wait.

To quote one of my favorite contemporary author:
[include/linux/sockios.h]
* THESE IOCTLS ARE _DEPRECATED_ AND WILL DISAPPEAR IN 2.5.X -DaveM
*/
#define SIOCDEVPRIVATE 0x89F0 /* to 89FF */
[...]
Gentoo's snmpd trips up over this code when trying to figure if the driver
supports the non-SIOCDEVPRIVATE API or not. One can argue over its choice
of heuristic but there no reason to make ioctl more ugly than needed.

While cleaning up the internal API focussing on Fiber and CX4 code
we found that I had broken the copper PHY initialization code. This
patch restores the PHY-specific code. This is mostly uninteresting
since no copper PHY boards are yet available. The changes have been
tested against Fiber only as I do not even have copper PHY versions
of 82598 macs.
This change actually cleans up the API code a bit more and we
lose some initialization code. A few PHY link detection helper
lines of code have been snuck into this patch, as well as a
read flush where it was suspected that this might cause issues.
