Field FL/TPL in register TDES3 is not correctly set on GMAC4.
TX appears to be functional on GMAC 4.10a even if this field is not set,
however, to avoid relying on undefined behavior, set the length in TDES3.
The field has a different meaning depending on if the TSE bit in TDES3
is set or not (TSO). However, regardless of the TSE bit, the field is
not optional. The field is already set correctly when the TSE bit is set.
Since there is no limit for the number of descriptors that can be
used for a single packet, the field should be set to the sum of
the buffers contained in:
[<desc with First Descriptor bit set> ... <desc n> ...
<desc with Last Descriptor bit set>], which should be equal to skb->len.

The ethtool stat counter rx_crc from stmmac is mis-named, the name
seems to speak about the number of RX CRC done, but in fact it is about
errors.
This patch rename it to rx_crc_errors, just like the same ifconfig
counter.

Fix up memory barriers in stmmac driver. They are meant to protect
against DMA engine, so smp_ variants are certainly wrong, and dma_
variants are preferable.

All conflicts were simple overlapping changes except perhaps
for the Thunder driver.
That driver has a change_mtu method explicitly for sending
a message to the hardware. If that fails it returns an
error.
Normally a driver doesn't need an ndo_change_mtu method becuase those
are usually just range changes, which are now handled generically.
But since this extra operation is needed in the Thunder driver, it has
to stay.
However, if the message send fails we have to restore the original
MTU before the change because the entire call chain expects that if
an error is thrown by ndo_change_mtu then the MTU did not change.
Therefore code is added to nicvf_change_mtu to remember the original
MTU, and to restore it upon nicvf_update_hw_max_frs() failue.

The stmmac driver does not take into account the processor may be big
endian when writing the DMA descriptors. This causes the ethernet
interface not to be initialised correctly when running a big-endian
kernel. Change the descriptors for DMA to use __le32 and ensure they are
suitably swapped before writing. Tested successfully on the
Cubieboard2.

This patch fixes the ethtool stats for PTP frames; previous
version does not take care about some message types: i.e.
announce, management and signaling. It also provided a
broken statistic in case of "No PTP message received".

This patch is to fill the first descriptor just before granting
the DMA engine so at the end of the xmit.
The patch takes care about the algorithm adopted to mitigate the
interrupts, then it fixes the last segment in case of no fragments.
Moreover, this new implementation does not pass any "ter" field when
prepare the descriptors because this is not necessary.
The patch also details the memory barrier in the xmit.
As final results, this patch guarantees the same performances
but fixing a case if small datagram are sent. In fact, this
kind of test is impacted if no coalesce is done.

This patch "inline" get_tx_owner and get_ls routines. It Results in a
unique read to tdes0, instead of three, to check TX_OWN and LS bits,
and other status bits.
It helps improve driver TX path by removing two uncached read/writes
inside TX clean loop for enhanced descriptors but not for normal ones
because the des1 must be read in any case.

Current implementation of descriptor init procedure only takes
care about setting/clearing ownership flag in "des0"/"des1"
fields while it is perfectly possible to get unexpected bits
set because of the following factors:
[1] On driver probe underlying memory allocated with
dma_alloc_coherent() might not be zeroed and so
it will be filled with garbage.
[2] During driver operation some bits could be set by SD/MMC
controller (for example error flags etc).
And unexpected and/or randomly set flags in "des0"/"des1"
fields may lead to unpredictable behavior of GMAC DMA block.
This change addresses both items above with:
[1] Use of dma_zalloc_coherent() instead of simple
dma_alloc_coherent() to make sure allocated memory is
zeroed. That shouldn't affect performance because
this allocation only happens once on driver probe.
[2] Do explicit zeroing of both "des0" and "des1" fields
of all buffer descriptors during initialization of
DMA transfer.
And while at it fixed identation of dma_free_coherent()
counterpart as well.

This patch enhances the stmmac driver to support IEEE 1588-2002
PTP (Precision Time Protocol) version 1 and IEEE 1588-2008 PPT
version 2.
Precision Time Protocol(PTP),which enables precise synchronization
of clocks in measurement and control systems implemented with
technologies such as network communication,local computing,
& distributed objects.
Both PTPv1 and PTPv2 is selected at run-time using the HW capability
register.
The PTPv1 TimeStamp support can be used on chips that have the normal
descriptor structures and PTPv2 TimeStamp support can be used on chips
that have the Extended descriptors(DES4-5-6-7). All such sanity checks
are done and verified by using HW capability register.
V2: in this version the ethtool support has been included in this patch;
Koptions have been completely removed (previously added to select
PTP and PTPv2). PTPv1 and PTPv2 is now added in a single patch instead of
two patches.
get_timestamp() and get_systemtime() L/H have been combined into single APIs.

This patch is to support the extend descriptors available
in the chips newer than the 3.50.
In case of the extend descriptors cannot be supported,
at runtime, the driver will continue to work using the old style.
In detail, this support extends the main descriptor structure
adding new descriptors: 4, 5, 6, 7. The desc4 gives us extra
information about the received ethernet payload when it is
carrying PTP packets or TCP/UDP/ICMP over IP packets.
The descriptors 6 and 7 are used for saving HW L/H timestamps (PTP).
V2: this new version removes the Koption added in the first implementation
because all the checks now to verify if the extended descriptors are
actually supported happen at probe time.

Previously we had two Koptions to decide if the stmmac
had to use either a ring or a chain to manage its descriptors.
This patch removes the Kernel configuration options and it allow us
to use the chain mode by passing a module option.
Ring mode continues to be the default.
Also with this patch, it will be easier to validate the driver built and
guarantee that all the two modes always compile fine.

This patch sanities the RX coe and adds the Type-1 Rx checksum offload engine (COE).
So the RX COE can be passed through the platform but can be fixed
at run-time in case of the core has the HW capability register.
Also to support the Type-1 Rx COE the driver must append the
HW checksum at the end of payload in case the Rx checksum
engine was used to offload the HW checksum.
This v2 version also fixes the IPC that has to be enabled and verified.

This patch enhances the STMMAC driver to support CHAINED mode of
descriptor.
STMMAC supports DMA descriptor to operate both in dual buffer(RING)
and linked-list(CHAINED) mode. In RING mode (default) each descriptor
points to two data buffer pointers whereas in CHAINED mode they point
to only one data buffer pointer.
In CHAINED mode each descriptor will have pointer to next descriptor in
the list, hence creating the explicit chaining in the descriptor itself,
whereas such explicit chaining is not possible in RING mode.
First version of this work has been done by Rayagond.
Then the patch has been reworked avoiding ifdef inside the C code.
A new header file has been added to define all the functions needed for
managing enhanced and normal descriptors.
In fact, these have to be specialized according to the ring/chain usage.
Two new C files have been also added to implement the helper routines
needed to manage: jumbo frames, chain and ring setup (i.e. desc3).
