Under some circumstances, e.g. when connecting to a switch, the ethernet
port will not be connected to a PHY. In that case a "fixed-link" DT node
can be used to replace it.

This patch adds support for the "fixed-link" node to the nb8800 driver.

The nb8800_poll() function initializes the 'next' variable in the
loop looking for new input data. We know this will be called at
least once because 'budget' is a guaranteed to be a positive number
when we enter the function, but the compiler doesn't know that
and warns when the variable is used later:
drivers/net/ethernet/aurora/nb8800.c: In function 'nb8800_poll':
drivers/net/ethernet/aurora/nb8800.c:350:21: warning: 'next' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
Changing the 'while() {}' loop to 'do {} while()' makes it obvious
to the compiler what is going on so it no longer warns.

This adds a driver for the Aurora VLSI NB8800 Ethernet controller.
It is an almost complete rewrite of a driver originally found in
a Sigma Designs 2.6.22 tree.
