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 completely changes the descriptor layout to improve
the whole performances due to the single read usage of the
descriptors in critical paths.

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 tidies up the code. I have run Linden (and verified with checkpatch)
many part of the driver trying to reorganize some sections respecting the
codying-style rules in the points where it was not done.

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.

This patch updates the normal descriptor structure
to work fine on new GMAC Synopsys chips.
Normal descriptors were designed on the old MAC10/100
databook 1.91 where some bits were reserved: for example
the tx checksum insertion and rx checksum offload.
The patch maintains the back-compatibility with old
MAC devices (tested on STx7109 MAC10/100) and adds new
fields that actually new GMAC devices can use.
For example, STx7109 (MAC10/100) will pass from the platform
tx_coe = 0, enh_desc = 0, has_gmac = 0.
A platform like Loongson1B (GMAC) will pass:
tx_coe = 1, enh_desc = 0, has_gmac = 1.
Thanks to Kelvin, he enhanced the normal descriptors for
GMAC (on MIPS Loongson1B platform).
