Auke Kok 1eae4eb2a1 e1000e: Disable L1 ASPM power savings for 82573 mobile variants
L1 ASPM link (pci-e link power savings) has significant benefits
(~1W savings when link is active) but unfortunately does not work
correctly on any of the chipsets that have 82573 on mobile platforms
which causes various nuisances:
 - eeprom reads return garbage information leading to bad eeprom
   checksums
 - long ping times (up to 2 seconds)
 - complete system hangs (freeze/lockup)

A lot of T60 owners have been plagued by this, but other mobile
solutions also suffer from these symptoms.

Disabling L1 ASPM before we activate the PCI-E link fixes all of
these issues at the cost of some power consumption.

Remove a workaround RDTR adjustment that is no longer needed with
this new one.

Auke Kok f920c186be e1000e: Remove legacy jumbo frame receive code
The legacy jumbo frame receive code is no longer needed since all
hardware can do packet split and we're no longer offering a bypass
kernel config option to disable packet split. Remove the unused code.

Auke Kok 47f44e40a3 e1000e: Fix jumbo frame receive code.
Fix allocation and freeing of jumbo frames where several bugs
were recently introduced by cleanups after we forked this code
from e1000. This moves ps_pages to buffer_info where it really
belongs and makes it a dynamically allocated array. The penalty
is not that high since it's allocated outside of the buffer_info
struct anyway.

Without this patch all jumbo frames are completely broken and the
driver panics.

Auke Kok bc7f75fa97 [E1000E]: New pci-express e1000 driver (currently for ICH9 devices only)
This driver implements support for the ICH9 on-board LAN ethernet
device. The device is similar to ICH8.

The driver encompasses code to support 82571/2/3, es2lan and ICH8
devices as well, but those device IDs are disabled and will be
"lifted" from the e1000 driver over one at a time once this driver
receives some more live time.

Changes to the last snapshot posted are exclusively in the internal
hardware API organization. Many thanks to Jeff Garzik for jumping in
and getting this organized with a keen eye on the future layout.

[ Integrated napi_struct patch from Auke as well... -DaveM ]
