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.

Jeff Kirsher 88f07484cc drivers/net/ethernet/*: Enabled vendor Kconfig options
Based on finds for Stephen Rothwell, where current defconfig's
enable a ethernet driver and it is not compiled due to the newly
added NET_VENDOR_* component of Kconfig.

This patch enables all the "new" Kconfig options so that current
defconfig's will continue to compile the expected drivers.  In
addition, by enabling all the new Kconfig options does not add
any un-expected options.
