Matt Carlson 55dffe79b3 tg3: Disable 5717 serdes and B0 support
The B0 revision of the 5717 will not get enough testing by the time
2.6.33 ships.  Since the kernel is already at RC3, serdes support
will require too many patches to fix.  For these reasons, this patch
disables 5717 serdes support and will refuse to attach to all 5717
devices that are later than an A0 revision.

Matt Carlson 86cfe4ff02 tg3: Fix std rx prod ring handling
There are some tg3 devices that require the driver to post new rx
buffers in smaller increments.  Commit
4361935afe, "tg3: Consider
rx_std_prod_idx a hw mailbox" changed how the driver tracks the rx
producer ring updates, but it does not make any special considerations
for the above-mentioned devices.  For those devices, it is possible for
the driver to hit the special case path, which updates the hardware
mailbox register but skips updating the shadow software mailbox member.
If the special case path represents the final mailbox update for this
ISR iteration, the hardware and software mailbox values will be out of
sync.  Ultimately, this will cause the driver to use a stale mailbox
value on the next iteration, which will appear to the hardware as a
large rx buffer update.  Bad things ensue.

The fix is to update the software shadow mailbox member when the special
case path is taken.

Commit 87668d352a, titled "tg3: Don't

the standard producer ring.  Unfortunately, the default nic address is
not correct for the 5787, the 5755M, or the 57765.  This patch
reenables the old behavior and opts out of the assignment only

Matt Carlson 32e5a8d651 tg3 / broadcom: Add code to disable rxc refclk
The 5785 does not use the RXC reference clock.  Turning it off is
desirable as it saves power.

By default, the 50610 enables the RXC reference clock and the 50610M
disables it.  Presumably this is one of the reasons why the hardware
architect chose one over the other.

Adding a "rx reference clock disable" flag is not the ideal way to
describe the option, as it would force the MAC using a 50610M to set
the flag.  Ideally we want the flags to represent opt-in behavior that
deviates from hardware defaults.  Furthermore, the lack of a
"disable" flag implies that the requester wants the rx reference clock
enabled, which doesn't necessarily follow.

By presenting the option as a passive statement (rx reference clock
unused) rather than a command, I hope to convey an opt-in option to
disable the rx reference clock that falls back to hardware defaults if
not set.  A secondary benefit of this is that it keeps the
intelligence about phy defaults in the broadcom module where it belongs
and allows the broadcom module more latitude should a bug arise.

Matt Carlson 92c6b8d16a tg3: Fix 5906 transmit hangs
The 5906 has trouble with fragments that are less than 8 bytes in size.
This patch works around the problem by pivoting the 5906's transmit
routine to tg3_start_xmit_dma_bug() and introducing a new SHORT_DMA_BUG
flag that enables code to detect and react to the problematic condition.
