The mv643xx_eth hardware ignores the lower three bits of the buffer
size field in receive descriptors, causing the reception of full-sized
packets to fail at some MTUs. Fix this by rounding the size of
allocated receive buffers up to a multiple of eight bytes.
While we are at it, add a bit of extra space to each receive buffer so
that we can handle multiple vlan tags on ingress.

When we are low on memory, the assumption that every descriptor in the
receive ring will have an skbuff associated with it does not hold.
rxq_process() was assuming that if the receive descriptor it is working
on is not owned by the hardware, it can safely be processed and handed
to the networking stack. But a descriptor in the receive ring not being
owned by the hardware can also happen when we are low on memory and did
not manage to refill the receive ring fully.
This patch changes rxq_process()'s bailout condition from "the first
receive descriptor to be processed is owned by the hardware" to "the
first receive descriptor to be processed is owned by the hardware OR
the number of valid receive descriptors in the ring is zero".

Commit 12e4ab79cd ("mv643xx_eth: be
more agressive about RX refill") changed the condition for the receive
out-of-memory timer to be scheduled from "the receive ring is empty"
to "the receive ring is not full".
This can lead to a situation where the receive out-of-memory timer is
pending because a previous rxq_refill() didn't manage to refill the
receive ring entirely as a result of being out of memory, and
rxq_refill() is then called again as a side effect of a packet receive
interrupt, and that rxq_refill() call then again does not succeed to
refill the entire receive ring with fresh empty skbuffs because we are
still out of memory, and then tries to call add_timer() on the already
scheduled out-of-memory timer.
This patch fixes this issue by changing the add_timer() call in
rxq_refill() to a mod_timer() call. If the OOM timer was not already
scheduled, this will behave as before, whereas if it was already
scheduled, this patch will push back its firing time a bit, which is
safe because we've (unsuccessfully) attempted to refill the receive
ring just before we do this.

When a receive interrupt occurs, mv643xx_eth would first process the
receive descriptors and then ACK the receive interrupt, instead of the
other way round.
This would leave a small race window between processing the last
receive descriptor and clearing the receive interrupt status in which
a new packet could come in, which would then 'rot' in the receive
ring until the next receive interrupt would come in.
Fix this by ACKing (clearing) the receive interrupt condition before
processing the receive descriptors.

Although mv643xx_eth has no hardware support for inserting a vlan
tag by twiddling some bits in the TX descriptor, it does support
hardware TX checksumming on packets where the IP header starts {a
limited set of values other than 14} bytes into the packet.
This patch sets mv643xx_eth's ->vlan_features to NETIF_F_SG |
NETIF_F_IP_CSUM, which prevents the stack from checksumming vlan'ed
packets in software, and if vlan tags are present on a transmitted
packet, notifies the hardware of this fact by toggling the right
bits in the TX descriptor.

The mv643xx_eth hardware has a provision for polling the PHY's
MII management registers to obtain the (R)(G)MII interface speed
(10/100/1000) and duplex (half/full) and pause (off/symmetric)
settings to use to talk to the PHY.
The driver currently does not make use of this feature. Instead,
whenever there is a link status change event, it reads the current
link parameters from the PHY, and programs those parameters into
the mv643xx_eth MAC by hand.
This patch switches the mv643xx_eth driver to letting the MAC
auto-determine the (R)(G)MII link parameters by PHY polling, if there
is a PHY present. For PHYless ports (when e.g. the (R)(G)MII
interface is connected to a hardware switch), we keep hardcoding the
MII interface parameters.

The mv643xx_eth driver is limiting DMA bursts to 32 bytes, while
using the largest burst size (128 bytes) gives a couple percentage

say that the 128 byte default should not need to be changed, so
use 128 byte bursts instead.

The maximum receive packet size field in the Port Serial Control
register controls at what size received packets are flagged
overlength in the receive descriptor, but it doesn't prevent
overlength packets from being DMAd to memory and signaled to the
host like other received packets.
mv643xx_eth does not support receiving jumbo frames in 10/100 mode,
but setting the packet threshold to larger than 1522 bytes in 10/100
mode won't cause breakage by itself.
If we really want to enforce maximum packet size on the receiving
end instead of on the sending end where it should be done, we can
always just add a length check to the software receive handler
instead of relying on the hardware to do the comparison for us.
What's more, changing the maximum packet size field requires
temporarily disabling the RX/TX paths. So once the link comes
up in 10/100 Mb/s mode or 1000 Mb/s mode, we'd have to disable it
again just to set the right maximum packet size field (1522 in
10/100 Mb/s mode or 9700 in 1000 Mb/s mode), just so that we can
offload one comparison operation to hardware that we might as well
do in software, assuming that we'd want to do it at all.
Contrary to what the documentation suggests, there is no harm in
just setting a 9700 byte maximum packet size in 10/100 mode, so use
the maximum maximum packet size for all modes.

The mv643xx_eth driver allows doing transmit reclaim from within the
napi poll routine, but after doing reclaim, it would forget to check
the free transmit descriptor count and wake up the transmit queue if
the reclaim caused enough descriptors for a new packet to become
available. This would cause the netdev watchdog to occasionally kick
in during certain workloads with combined receive and transmit traffic.
Fix this by adding a wakeup check identical to the one in the
interrupt handler to the napi poll routine.

When the ethernet link goes down while mv643xx_eth is transmitting
data, transmit DMA can stop before all queued transmit descriptors
have been processed. But even the descriptors that _have_ been
processed might not be properly marked as done before the transmit
DMA unit shuts down.
Then when the link comes up again, the hardware transmit pointer
might have advanced while not all previous packet descriptors have
been marked as transmitted, causing software transmit reclaim to
hang waiting for the hardware to finish transmitting a descriptor
that it has already skipped.
This patch forcibly reclaims all packets on the transmit ring on a
link down interrupt, and then resyncs the hardware transmit pointer to
what the software's idea of the first free descriptor is. Also, we
need to prevent re-waking the transmit queue if we get a 'transmit
done' interrupt at the same time as a 'link down' interrupt, which
this patch does as well.

The previously merged TX hang erratum workaround ("mv643xx_eth:
work around TX hang hardware issue") assumes that TX_END interrupts
are delivered simultaneously with or after their corresponding TX
interrupts, but this is not always true in practise.
In particular, it appears that TX_END interrupts are issued as soon
as descriptor fetch returns an invalid descriptor, which may happen
before earlier descriptors have been fully transmitted and written
back to memory as being done.
This hardware behavior can lead to a situation where the current
driver code mistakenly assumes that the MAC has given up transmitting
before noticing the packets that it is in fact still currently working
on, causing the driver to re-kick the transmit queue, which will only
cause the MAC to re-fetch the invalid head descriptor, and generate
another TX_END interrupt, et cetera, until the packets in the pipe
finally finish transmitting and have their descriptors written back
to memory, which will then finally break the loop.
Fix this by having the erratum workaround not check the 'number of
unfinished descriptor', but instead, to compare the software's idea
of what the head descriptor pointer should be to the hardware's head
descriptor pointer (which is updated on the same conditions as the
TX_END interupt is generated on, i.e. possibly before all previous
descriptors have been transmitted and written back).
