Some ROMs on embedded devices store incorrect values for
the PHY address of the ethernet device.
It looks like the number is sign-extended.
Truncate the value by applying the PHY-address mask to it.
The patch was tested on a bcm47xx embedded system (where the bug
triggers) and a bcm4400 PCI card.

According to: Documentation/networking/netdevices.txt:
<cite>
napi->poll:
..........
Context: softirq
will be called with interrupts disabled by netconsole.
</cite>
napi->poll() could be called either with interrupts enabled
(in softirq context) or disabled (by netconsole), so the irq flag
should be preserved.

Using iWARP with a Chelsio T3 NIC generates the following lockdep warning:
=================================
[ INFO: inconsistent lock state ]
2.6.25-rc6 #50
---------------------------------
inconsistent {softirq-on-W} -> {in-softirq-W} usage.
swapper/0 [HC0[0]:SC1[1]:HE0:SE0] takes:
(&adap->sge.reg_lock){-+..}, at: [<ffffffff880e5ee2>] cxgb_offload_ctl+0x3af/0x507 [cxgb3]
The problem is that reg_lock is used with plain spin_lock() in
drivers/net/cxgb3/sge.c but is used with spin_lock_irqsave() in
drivers/net/cxgb3/cxgb3_offload.c. This is technically a false
positive, since the uses in sge.c are only in the initialization and
cleanup paths and cannot overlap with any use in interrupt context.
The best fix is probably just to use spin_lock_irq() with reg_lock in
sge.c. Even though it's not strictly required for correctness, it
avoids triggering lockdep and the extra overhead of disabling
interrupts is not important at all in the initialization and cleanup
slow paths.

o eliminate tx lock in netxen adapter struct, instead pound on netdev
tx lock appropriately.
o remove old "concurrent transmit" code that unnecessarily drops and
reacquires tx lock in hard_xmit_frame(), this is already serialized
the netdev xmit lock.
o reduce scope of tx lock in tx cleanup. tx cleanup operates on
different section of the ring than transmitting cpus and is
guarded by producer and consumer indices. This fixes a race
caused by rx softirq preemption on realtime kernels.

o separate and simpler irq handler for msi interrupts, avoids few checks
than legacy mode.
o avoid redudant tx_has_work() and rx_has_work() checks in interrupt
and napi, which can uncork irq based on racy (lockless) access to tx
and rx ring indices. If we get interrupt, there's sufficient reason to
schedule napi.
o replenish rx ring more often, remove self-imposed threshold rcv_free
that prevents posting rx desc to card. This improves performance in

We pad every ACPI pathname component to four characters, so ".ISA." will
never match anything. We need ".ISA_." instead.

this on cmdline (phyp_dump=0) to disable phyp-dump during boot when
enabling itself. This will ensure only one dumping mechanism is active
at any given time.

Check to see if there actually is data from a previously
crashed kernel waiting. If so, allow user-space tools to
grab the data (by reading /proc/kcore). When user-space
finishes dumping a section, it must release that memory
by writing to sysfs. For example,
echo "0x40000000 0x10000000" > /sys/kernel/release_region
will release 256MB starting at the 1GB. The released memory
becomes free for general use.

Prevailing practice for define_machine() in powerpc is to use the
platform name when the platform has only one define_machine()
statement, but maple uses "maple_md". This caused me some
head-scratching when writing some new code that uses
machine_is(maple).
Use "maple" instead of "maple_md". There should not be any behavioral
change -- fixup_maple_ide() calls machine_is(maple) but the body of
the function is ifdef'd out.
