After a cold reset this doesn't matter but if PBIST MAC test was

Secondary unicast and multicast addresses are added to the Receive
Address registers (RAR) for most parts supported by the driver. For
82579, there is only one actual RAR and a number of Shared Receive Address
registers (SHRAR) that are shared among the driver and f/w which can be
reserved and write-protected by the f/w. On this device, use the SHRARs
that are not taken by f/w for the additional addresses.
Add a MAC ops function pointer infrastructure (similar to other MAC
operations in the driver) for setting RARs, introduce a new rar_set
function for 82579 and convert the existing code that sets RARs on other
devices to a generic rar_set function.

An update to the EEPROM on 82579 will extend a delay in hardware to fix an
issue with WoL not working after a G3->S5 transition which is unrelated to
the driver. However, this extended delay conflicts with nominal operation
of the device when it is initialized by the driver and after every reset
of the hardware (i.e. the driver starts configuring the device before the
hardware is done with it's own configuration work). The workaround for
when the driver is in control of the device is to tell the hardware after
every reset the configuration delay should be the original shorter one.
Some pre-existing variables are renamed generically to be re-used with
new register accesses.

Previously, a workaround was added to address a hardware bug in the
PCIm2PCI arbiter where a write by the driver of the Transmit/Receive
Descriptor Tail register could happen concurrently with a write of any
MAC CSR register by the Manageability Engine (ME) which could cause the
Tail register to have an incorrect value. The arbiter is supposed to
prevent the concurrent writes but there is a bug that can cause the Host
(driver) access to be acknowledged later than it should.
After further investigation, it was discovered that a driver write access
of any MAC CSR register after being idle for some time can be lost when
ME is accessing a MAC CSR register. When this happens, no further target
access is claimed by the MAC which could hang the system.
The workaround to check bit 24 in the FWSM register (set only when ME is
accessing a MAC CSR register) and delay for a limited amount of time until
it is cleared is now done for all driver writes of MAC CSR registers on
82579 with ME enabled. In the rare case when the driver is writing the
Tail register and ME is accessing any MAC CSR register for a duration
longer than the maximum delay, write the register and verify it has the
correct value before continuing, otherwise reset the device.
This patch also moves some pre-existing macros from the hardware-specific
header file to the more appropriate generic driver header file.

Based on the original patch from Ying Cai <ycai@google.com>
This change ensures that the itr/itr_setting adjustment logic is used,
even for the default/compiled-in value.
Context:
When we changed the default InterruptThrottleRate value from default
(3 = dynamic mode) to 8000 for example, only adapter->itr_setting
(which controls interrupt coalescing mode) was set to 8000, but
adapter->itr (which controls the value set in NIC register) was not
updated accordingly. So from ethtool, it seemed the interrupt
throttling is enabled at 8000 intr/s, but the NIC actually was
running in dynamic mode which has lower CPU efficiency especially
when throughput is not high.

A workaround was previously put in the driver to reset the device when
transitioning to Sx in order to activate the changed settings of the PHY
OEM bits (Low Power Link Up, or LPLU, and GbE disable configuration) for
82577/8/9 devices. After further review, it was found such a reset can
cause the 82579 to confuse which version of 82579 it actually is and broke
LPLU on all 82577/8/9 devices. The workaround during an S0->Sx transition
on 82579 (instead of resetting the PHY) is to restart auto-negotiation
after the OEM bits are configured; the restart of auto-negotiation
activates the new OEM bits as does the reset. With 82577/8, the reset is
changed to a generic reset which fixes the LPLU bits getting set wrong.
