Unlike a normal socket path, the tuntap device send path does
not have any accounting. This means that the user-space sender
may be able to pin down arbitrary amounts of kernel memory by
continuing to send data to an end-point that is congested.
Even when this isn't an issue because of limited queueing at
most end points, this can also be a problem because its only
response to congestion is packet loss. That is, when those
local queues at the end-point fills up, the tuntap device will
start wasting system time because it will continue to send
data there which simply gets dropped straight away.
Of course one could argue that everybody should do congestion
control end-to-end, unfortunately there are people in this world
still hooked on UDP, and they don't appear to be going away
anywhere fast. In fact, we've always helped them by performing
accounting in our UDP code, the sole purpose of which is to
provide congestion feedback other than through packet loss.
This patch attempts to apply the same bandaid to the tuntap device.
It creates a pseudo-socket object which is used to account our
packets just as a normal socket does for UDP. Of course things
are a little complex because we're actually reinjecting traffic
back into the stack rather than out of the stack.
The stack complexities however should have been resolved by preceding
patches. So this one can simply start using skb_set_owner_w.
For now the accounting is essentially disabled by default for
backwards compatibility. In particular, we set the cap to INT_MAX.
This is so that existing applications don't get confused by the
sudden arrival EAGAIN errors.
In future we may wish (or be forced to) do this by default.

Stashing is only supported on the 85xx (e500-based) SoCs. The 83xx and 86xx
chips don't have a proper cache for this. U-Boot has been updated to add
stashing properties to the device tree nodes of gianfar devices on 85xx. So
now we modify Linux to keep stashing off unless those properties are there.

This will be used for RX mode, MAC filter table, VLAN filtering, etc...
The control transaction consists of one or more "out" sg entries and
one or more "in" sg entries. The first out entry contains a header
defining the class and command. Additional out entries may provide
data for the command. The last in entry provides a status response
back from the command.
Virtqueues typically run asynchronous, running a callback function
when there's data in the channel. We can't readily make use of this
in the command paths where we need to use this. Instead, we kick
the virtqueue and spin. The kick causes an I/O write, triggering an
immediate trap into the hypervisor.

In most cases (e.g. PCI drivers) MDIO and MAC controllers are
represented by the same device. But for SOC ethernets we have
separate devices. So, in SOC case, checking whether MDIO
controller may wakeup is not only makes little sense, but also
prevents us from doing per-netdevice wakeup management.
This patch reworks suspend/resume code so that now it checks
for net device's wakeup flags, not MDIO controller's ones.
Each netdevice should manage its wakeup flags, and phylib will
decide whether suspend an attached PHY or not.
