huangdaode b5996f11ea net: add Hisilicon Network Subsystem basic ethernet support
This is to add basic ethernet support for HNS. It is one of the way to
use the HNS acceleration engine. But most of the decoding/encoding
capability of the AE cannot be used in this way.

This submit contains the basic feature as a ethernet driver. More will
be added later.

huangdaode 511e6bc071 net: add Hisilicon Network Subsystem DSAF support
DSAF, namely Distributed System Area Fabric, is one of the HNS
acceleration engine implementation. This patch add DSAF driver to the
system.

hns_ae_adapt: the adaptor for registering the driver to HNAE framework
hns_dsaf_mac: MAC cover interface for GE and XGE
hns_dsaf_gmac: GE (10/100/1000G Ethernet) MAC function
hns_dsaf_xgmac: XGE (10000+G Ethernet) MAC function
hns_dsaf_main: the platform device driver for the whole hardware
hns_dsaf_misc: some misc helper function, such as LED support
hns_dsaf_ppe: packet process engine function
hns_dsaf_rcb: ring buffer function

huangdaode 6fe6611ff2 net: add Hisilicon Network Subsystem hnae framework support
HNAE (Hisilicon Network Acceleration Engine) is a framework to provide a
unified ring buffer interface for Hisilicon Network Acceleration
Engines.

With the interface, upper layer can work as ethernet driver, ODP driver
or other service driver on purpose.

Paul Gortmaker 138b15ed87 drivers/net: remove all references to obsolete Ethernet-HOWTO
This howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configure
ISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementation
of PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point where
it has been well over a decade since I last updated it.  And there is
no value in anyone else taking over updating it either.

However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate text
from one Kconfig file into the next.  We are not doing end users any
favours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it with
fire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread.

No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text.

Zhangfei Gao 57c5bc9ad7 net: hisilicon: add hix5hd2 mac driver
Add support for the hix5hd2 XGMAC 1Gb ethernet device.
The controller requires two queues for tx and two queues for rx.
Controller fetch buffer from free queue and then push to used queue.
Diver should prepare free queue and free buffer from used queue.
