73a3707953 forcedeth: fix dma api mismatches
forcedeth doesnt use properly dma api in its tx completion path
and in nv_loopback_test()

pci_map_single() should be paired with pci_unmap_single()
pci_map_page() should be paired with pci_unmap_page()

forcedeth xmit path uses pci_map_single() & pci_map_page(),
but tx completion path only uses pci_unmap_single()

nv_loopback_test() uses pci_map_single() & pci_unmap_page()

Add a dma_single field in struct nv_skb_map, and
define a helper function nv_unmap_txskb

5a9a8e32eb forcedeth: add phy_power_down parameter, leave phy powered up by default (v2)
Add a phy_power_down parameter to forcedeth: set to 1 to power down the
phy and disable the link when an interface goes down; set to 0 to always
leave the phy powered up.

The phy power state persists across reboots; Windows, some BIOSes, and
older versions of Linux don't bother to power up the phy again, forcing
users to remove all power to get the interface working (see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13072).  Leaving the phy
powered on is the safest default behavior.  Users accustomed to seeing
the link state reflect the interface state and/or wanting to minimize
power consumption can set phy_power_down=1 if compatibility with other
OSes is not an issue.

1b2bb76f57 forcedeth: fix irq clearing and napi spin lock changes
This patch clears the irqstatus register with the exact same events it
has read from it. Since the read-write operation is not atomic, a new
irqstatus bit could have been set in between these operations and would
then be cleared accidentally.

Secondly, we now don't need any spin lock protection when
scheduling/completing napi poll as the isr will not execute anymore (as
we turn off all interrupts now).

4145ade2bb forcedeth: add interrupt moderation logic
This patch adds the logic to moderate the interrupts by changing the
mode between throughput and poll. If there has been a large amount of
time without any burst of network load, the code will transition to pure
throughput mode (where each tx/rx/other will cause an interrupt). If
bursts of network load occurs, it will transition to poll based mode to
help reduce cpu utilization (it will not interrupt on each packet) while
maintaining the optimum network bandwidth utilization.

mode. Secondly, since we are modifying the irqmask to change between

34edaa8832 net: forcedeth: Fix wake-on-lan regression
Commit f55c21fd9a ("forcedeth: call
restore mac addr in nv_shutdown path"), which was introduced to fix
the regression tracked at
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11358 causes the
wake-on-lan mac to be reversed in the shutdown path.  Apparently the
forcedeth situation is rather messy in that the mac we need to
writeback for a subsequent modprobe to work is exactly the reverse of
what is needed for proper wake-on-lan.

The following patch explains the situation in the comments and
makes the call to nv_restore_mac_addr() conditional (only called if
we are not really going for poweroff).

288379f050 net: Remove redundant NAPI functions
Following the removal of the unused struct net_device * parameter from
the NAPI functions named *netif_rx_* in commit 908a7a1, they are
exactly equivalent to the corresponding *napi_* functions and are
therefore redundant.

eb10a78182 forcedeth: napi schedule lock fix
This patch fixes a potential race condition between scheduling napi and
completing napi poll. The call to netif_rx_schedule should be under
protection of the lock (as is the completion), otherwise, interrupts
could be masked off.

001eb84bbf forcedeth: xmit lock fix
This patch fixes a potential race condition between xmit thread and xmit
completion thread. The calculation of empty tx descriptors is not
performed under the lock. This could cause it to set the stop flag while
the completion thread finishes all tx's. This will result in the tx
queue in stopped state and no one to wake it up.

36994a0a70 forcedeth: don't poll NV event 36
Polling doesn't seem to be necessary on my hardware, at
least I haven't seen any bad effects testing it a while.
Remove the polling so the CPU doesn't have to wake up a
hundred times per second.

908a7a16b8 net: Remove unused netdev arg from some NAPI interfaces.
When the napi api was changed to separate its 1:1 binding to the net_device
struct, the netif_rx_[prep|schedule|complete] api failed to remove the now
vestigual net_device structure parameter.  This patch cleans up that api by
properly removing it..

b74ca3a896 netdevice: Kill netdev->priv
This is the last shoot of this series.
After I removing all directly reference of netdev->priv, I am killing
"priv" of "struct net_device" and fixing relative comments/docs.

Anyone will not be allowed to reference netdev->priv directly.
If you want to reference the memory of private data, use netdev_priv()
instead.
If the private data is not allocted when alloc_netdev(), use
netdev->ml_priv to point that memory after you creating that private
data.
