Danny Kukawka 504f9b5a6b ethernet: unify return value of .ndo_set_mac_address if address is invalid
Unify return value of .ndo_set_mac_address if the given address
isn't valid. Return -EADDRNOTAVAIL as eth_mac_addr() already does
if is_valid_ether_addr() fails.

Danny Kukawka baf1d3788e davinci_emac: use eth_hw_addr_random() instead of random_ether_addr()
Use eth_hw_addr_random() instead of calling random_ether_addr()
to set addr_assign_type correctly to NET_ADDR_RANDOM.

Reset the state to NET_ADDR_PERM as soon as the MAC get
changed via .ndo_set_mac_address.

Remove one memcpy from emac_dev_setmac_addr() since this is a
duplicate: it's already done some lines above.

v2: use bitops, adapt to eth_hw_addr_random, remove a memcpy

Julia Lawall cb0a178c78 drivers/net/ethernet/ti: Move call to PTR_ERR after reassignment
PTR_ERR should be called before its argument is cleared.

Sascha Hauer 86d8c07ff2 net/davinci: do not use all descriptors for tx packets
The driver uses a shared pool for both rx and tx descriptors.
During open it queues fixed number of 128 descriptors for receive
packets. For each received packet it tries to queue another
descriptor. If this fails the descriptor is lost for rx.
The driver has no limitation on tx descriptors to use, so it
can happen during a nmap / ping -f attack that the driver
allocates all descriptors for tx and looses all rx descriptors.
The driver stops working then.
To fix this limit the number of tx descriptors used to half of
the descriptors available, the rx path uses the other half.

Tested on a custom board using nmap / ping -f to the board from
two different hosts.
