Michael Chan 23021c2105 cnic: Improve error recovery on bnx2x devices
When a bnx2x device encounters parity errors, it will not respond to all
SPQ messages.  As a result, the shutdown sequence before reset can take
a long time as the ulp drivers (bnx2i/bnx2fc) have to wait for timeout
of all such messages.

To improve this scenario, when bnx2x returns error on the SPQ, we'll send
an immediate response to the ulp drivers to avoid such lengthy timeouts.

Adjust the return code of relevant functions to return error only if
the message cannot be sent on the SPQ so that we'll generate an error
completion to the ulp drivers.

Michael Chan a9e0a4f2ca cnic: Re-init dev->stats_addr after chip reset
because bnx2x frees the old and allocates new memory during chip reset.

Add support to send driver capabilities, settings and statistics to
management firmware.

[ Redone using many local variables, removed many unnecessary inlines,
  and put #defines at the left margin suggested by Joe Perches ]

Eric Dumazet 2cfa5a0471 net: treewide use of RCU_INIT_POINTER
rcu_assign_pointer(ptr, NULL) can be safely replaced by
RCU_INIT_POINTER(ptr, NULL)

(old rcu_assign_pointer() macro was testing the NULL value and could
omit the smp_wmb(), but this had to be removed because of compiler
warnings)

Michael Chan dcc7e3a6a2 cnic: Add timeout for ramrod replies.
If the bnx2x device has encountered parity errors, the chip will not DMA
any replies.  Using wait_event_timeout() will allow us to make forward
progress and let bnx2x reset the chip.
