Octeon Ethernet driver is currently trying to wake up multiple
CPU cores for parallel NAPI processing when needed, to cope
with the fact that all network interfaces are handled through
the same receive queue processed by a single core/interrupt
(see http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=137209784914565&w=2).
This partially overlaps with generic RPS functionality.
Commit a6a39a7fcf ("staging: octeon-ethernet: disable load balance
for receiving packet when CONFIG_RPS is enabled") already disabled this
when RPS is enabled. Let's delete this code altogether as it has issues
like packet reordering and potential problems with CPU offlining/onlining.
Tested on EdgeRouter Lite.

This prevents PHY not found types of errors for PHY drivers that are
probed after the Ethernet driver is probed, because the ifconfig UP is
done from userspace after all drivers have been probed.
Also avoid the cvmx-helper-board.c PHY code if a real PHY driver is
present, this allows a bootloader supplied device tree to specify the
PHY information rather than having to modify the code for each
different board.

If we wait for the once-per-second cleanup to free transmit SKBs,
sockets with small transmit buffer sizes might spend most of their
time blocked waiting for the cleanup.
Normally we do a cleanup for each transmitted packet. We add a
watchdog type timer so that we also schedule a timeout for 150uS after
a packet is transmitted. The watchdog is reset for each transmitted
packet, so for high packet rates, it never expires. At these high
rates, the cleanups are done for each packet so the extra watchdog
initiated cleanups are neither needed nor triggered.

This version has spelling and comment changes based on feedback from
Eric Dumazet.
Convert the driver to be a reasonably well behaved NAPI citizen.
There is one NAPI instance per CPU shared between all input ports. As
receive backlog increases, NAPI is scheduled on additional CPUs.
Receive buffer refill code factored out so it can also be called from
the periodic timer. This is needed to recover from temporary buffer
starvation conditions.

Convert the driver to use net_device_ops as it is now mandatory.
Also compensate for the removal of struct sk_buff's dst field.
The changes are mostly mechanical, the content of ethernet-common.c
was moved to ethernet.c and ethernet-common.{c,h} are removed.

The octeon-ethernet driver supports the sgmii, rgmii, spi, and xaui
ports present on the Cavium OCTEON family of SOCs. These SOCs are
multi-core mips64 processors with existing support over in arch/mips.
The driver files can be categorized into three basic groups:
1) Register definitions, these are named cvmx-*-defs.h
2) Main driver code, these have names that don't start cvmx-.
3) Interface specific functions and other utility code, names starting
with cvmx-
