e694e964fc igb: place a pointer to the netdev struct in the ring itself
This change adds a pointer to the netdev to the ring itself.  The idea being
at some point in the future it will be possible to support multiple netdevs
from a single adapter struct.

85ad76b2f9 igb: add a flags value to the ring
This patch adds a flags value to the ring that cleans up some of the last
remaining items from the ring in order to help seperate it from the adapter
struct.  By implementing these flags it becomes possible for different rings
to support different functions such as rx checksumming.

04a5fcaaf0 igb: move alloc_failed and csum_err stats into per rx-ring stat
The allocation failed and checksum error stats are currently kept as a
global stat.  If we end up allocating the queues to multiple netdevs then
the global counter doesn't make much sense.  For this reason I felt it
necessary to move the alloc_rx_buff_failed stat into the rx_stats
portion of the rx_ring.

fce99e3415 igb: change the head and tail offsets into pointers
Since we are writting to the head/tail pointers frequently we might as well
save ourselves some processing time by converting the head and tail offsets
directly to pointers.  This will shave a few cycles off the rx/tx path and
allows us to move one step closer to the rings being a bit more independant of
each other.

6ec43fe635 igb: remove rx_ps_hdr_len
This patch removes the rx_ps_hdr_len which isn't really needed since we can
now use rx_buffer_len less than 1K to indicate that we are in a packet split

8c0ab70ab9 igb: Implement reading of reg RQDPC (Receive Queue Drop Packet Count)
Based on the previous patches from Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk>

Implement reading the per queue drop stats register
RQDPC (Receive Queue Drop Packet Count).  It counts the number of
packets dropped by a queue due to lack of descriptors available.

Notice RQDPC (Receive Queue Drop Packet Count) stats only gets
incremented, if the DROP_EN bit it set (in the SRRCTL register
for that queue).  If DROP_EN bit is NOT set, then the some what
equivalent count is stored in RNBC (not per queue basis).

The RQDPC register is only 12 bit, thus the precision might
suffer due to overrun in-netween the watchdog polling interval.

33af6bcc00 igb: use timecompare to implement hardware time stamping
Both TX and RX hardware time stamping are implemented.  Due to
hardware limitations it is not possible to verify reliably which
packet was time stamped when multiple were pending for sending; this
could be solved by only allowing one packet marked for hardware time
stamping into the queue (not implemented yet).

RX time stamping relies on the flag in the packet descriptor which
marks packets that were time stamped. In "all packet" mode this flag
is not set. TODO: also support that mode (even though it'll suffer
from race conditions).

5c0999b72b igb: Replace LRO with GRO
This patch makes igb invoke the GRO hooks instead of LRO.  As
GRO has a compatible external interface to LRO this is a very
straightforward replacement.

Three things of note:

1) I've kept the LRO Kconfig option until we decide to enable
GRO across the board at which point it can also be killed.

2) The poll_controller stuff is broken in igb as it tries to do
the same work as the normal poll routine.  Since poll_controller
can be called in the middle of a poll, this can't be good.

I noticed this because poll_controller can invoke the GRO hooks
without flushing held GRO packets.

However, this should be harmless (assuming the poll_controller
bug above doesn't kill you first :) since the next ->poll will
clear the backlog.  The only time when we'll have a problem is
if we're already executing the GRO code on the same ring, but
that's no worse than what happens now.

3) I kept the ip_summed check before calling GRO so that we're
on par with previous behaviour.

9d5c824399 igb: PCI-Express 82575 Gigabit Ethernet driver
We are pleased to announce a new Gigabit Ethernet product and its
driver to the linux community. This product is the Intel(R) 82575
Gigabit Ethernet adapter family. Physical adapters will be available
to the public soon. These adapters come in 2- and 4-port versions
(copper PHY) currently. Other variants will be available later.

The 82575 chipset supports significantly different features that
warrant a new driver. The descriptor format is (just like the
ixgbe driver) different. The device can use multiple MSI-X vectors
and multiple queues for both send and receive. This allows us to
optimize some of the driver code specifically as well compared to
the e1000-supported devices.

This version of the igb driver no lnger uses fake netdevices and
incorporates napi_struct members for each ring to do the multi-
queue polling. multi-queue is enabled by default and the driver
supports NAPI mode only.

All the namespace collisions should be gone in this version too. The
register macro's have been condensed to improve readability.
