0f73f2c5a3 GRETH: resolve SMP issues and other problems
Fixes the following:
1. POLL should not enable IRQ when work is not completed
2. No locking between TX descriptor cleaning and XMIT descriptor handling
3. No locking between RX POLL and XMIT modifying control register
4. Since TX cleaning (called from POLL) is running in parallel with XMIT
   unnecessary locking is needed.
5. IRQ handler looks at RX frame status solely, this is wrong when IRQ is
   temporarily disabled (in POLL), and when IRQ is shared.
6. IRQ handler clears IRQ status, which is unnecessary
7. TX queue was stopped in preventing cause when not MAX_SKB_FRAGS+1
   descriptors were available after a SKB been scheduled by XMIT. Instead
   the TX queue is stopped first when not enough descriptors are available
   upon entering XMIT.

It was hard to split up this patch in smaller pieces since all are tied
together somehow.

Note the RX flag used in the interrupt handler does not signal that
interrupt was asserted, but that a frame was received. Same goes for TX.
Also, IRQ is not asserted when the RX flag is set before enabling IRQ
enable until a new frame is received. So extra care must be taken to
avoid enabling IRQ and all descriptors are already used, hence dead lock
will upon us. See new POLL implementation that enableds IRQ then look at
the RX flag to determine if one or more IRQs may have been missed. TX/RX
flags are cleared before handling previously enabled descriptors, this
ensures that the RX/TX flags are valid when determining if IRQ should be
turned on again.

By moving TX cleaning from POLL to XMIT in the standard case, removes some
locking trouble. Enabling TX cleaning from poll only when not enough TX
descriptors are available is safe because the TX queue is at the same time
stopped, thus XMIT will not be called. The TX queue is woken up again when
enough descriptrs are available.

TX Frames are always enabled with IRQ, however the TX IRQ Enable flag will
not be enabled until XMIT must wait for free descriptors.

Locking RX and XMIT parts of the driver from each other is needed because
the RX/TX enable bits share the same register.

1ca23434dd GRETH: handle frame error interrupts
Frame error interrupts must also be handled since the RX flag only indicates
successful reception, it is unlikely but the old code may lead to dead lock
if 128 error frames are recieved in a row.

bc8acf2c8c drivers/net: avoid some skb->ip_summed initializations
fresh skbs have ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_NONE (0)

We can avoid setting again skb->ip_summed to CHECKSUM_NONE in drivers.

Introduce skb_checksum_none_assert() helper so that we keep this
assertion documented in driver sources.

Change most occurrences of :

skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE;

by :

skb_checksum_none_assert(skb);

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.
