Enable workaround for P2020/P2010 erratum eTSEC 20,
"Excess delays when transmitting TOE=1 large frames".
The impact is that frames lager than 2500-bytes for which
TOE (i.e. TCP/IP hw accelerations like Tx csum) is enabled
may see excess delay before start of transmission.
This erratum was fixed in Rev 2.0.

Use the macros and defines from mpc85xx.h to simplify
and prevent errors in identifying a mpc85xx based SoC
for errata detection.
This should help enabling (and identifying) workarounds
for various mpc85xx based chips and revisions.
For instance, express MPC8548 Rev.2 as:
(SVR_SOC_VER(svr) == SVR_8548) && (SVR_REV(svr) == 0x20)
instead of:
(pvr == 0x80210020 && mod == 0x8030 && rev == 0x0020)

A002 is still in "no plans to fix" state, and applies to all
the current P1/P2 parts as well, so it's resonable to enable
its workaround by default, for all the soc's with etsec.
The impact of not enabling this workaround for affected parts
is that under certain conditons (runt frames or even frames
with RX error detected at PHY level) during controller reset,
the controller might fail to indicate Rx reset (GRS) completion.

1) We used the wrong netlink attribute to verify the
lenght of the replay window on async events. Fix this by
using the right netlink attribute.
2) Policy lookups can not match the output interface on forwarding.
Add the needed informations to the flow informations.
3) We update the pmtu when we receive a ICMPV6_DEST_UNREACH message
on IPsec with ipv6. This is wrong and leads to strange fragmented
packets, only ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG messages should update the pmtu.
Fix this by removing the ICMPV6_DEST_UNREACH check from the IPsec
protocol error handlers.
4) The legacy IPsec anti replay mechanism supports anti replay
windows up to 32 packets. If a user requests for a bigger
anti replay window, we use 32 packets but pretend that we use
the requested window size. Fix from Fan Du.
5) If asynchronous events are enabled and replay_maxdiff is set to
zero, we generate an async event for every received packet instead
of checking whether a timeout occurred. Fix from Thomas Egerer.
6) Policies need a refcount when the state resolution timer is armed.
Otherwise the timer can fire after the policy is deleted.
7) We might dreference a NULL pointer if the hold_queue is empty,
add a check to avoid this.

Unlike ipv4, the struct member hlen holds the length of the GRE and ipv6

Perhaps, it's more clean to modify the hlen to count only the GRE header

David Hauweele noticed that the mrf24j40 would hang arbitrarily after some
period of heavy traffic. Two race conditions were discovered, and the
driver was changed to use threaded interrupts, since the enable/disable of

The mrf24j40 generates level interrupts. There are rare cases where it

that a board will be reconfigured to enable them while the driver has
not yet been updated to fully support this.
The most obvious problem is that multiple functions may try to set
conflicting link settings. But we will also run into trouble if the
firmware doesn't consider us fully trusted. So, abort probing unless

====================
This patch set comprises some one-liners to fix issues with repeated
loading and unloading of a modular mv643xx_eth driver.
First two patches take care of the periodic port statistic timer, that
updates statistics by reading port registers using add_timer/mod_timer.
Patch 1 moves timer re-schedule from mib_counters_update to the timer
callback. As mib_counters_update is also called from non-timer context,
this ensures the timer is reactivated from timer context only.
Patch 2 moves initial timer schedule from _probe() time to right before
the port is actually started as the corresponding del_timer_sync is at
_stop() time. This fixes a regression, where unloading the driver from a
non-started eth device can cause the timer to access deallocated mem.
Patch 3 adds an assignment of the ports device_node to the corresponding
self-created platform_device. This is required to allow fixups based on
the device_node's compatible string later. Actually, it is also a potential
regression because we already check compatible string for Kirkwood, but
does not (yet) rely on the fixup.
All patches are based on v3.12-rc3 and have been tested on Kirkwood-based
Seagate Dockstar.
Patches 1 and 2 can also possibly queued up for -stable.

DT-based mv643xx_eth probes and creates platform_devices for the
port devices on its own. To allow fixups for ports based on the
device_node, we need to set .of_node of the corresponding device
with the correct node.

The periodic statistics timer gets started at port _probe() time, but
is stopped on _stop() only. In a modular environment, this can cause
the timer to access already deallocated memory, if the module is unloaded
without starting the eth device. To fix this, we add the timer right
before the port is started, instead of at _probe() time.
