83f34df4e7 Add dcr_host_t.base in dcr_read()/dcr_write()
Now that all users of dcr_read()/dcr_write() add the dcr_host_t.base, we
can save them the trouble and do it in dcr_read()/dcr_write().

As some background to why we just went through all this jiggery-pokery,
benh sayeth:

 Initially the goal of the dcr_read/dcr_write routines was to operate like
 mfdcr/mtdcr which take absolute DCR numbers. The reason is that on 4xx
 hardware, indirect DCR access is a pain (goes through a table of
 instructions) and it's useful to have the compiler resolve an absolute DCR
 inline.

 We decided that wasn't worth the API bastardisation since most places
 where absolute DCR values are used are low level 4xx-only code which may
 as well continue using mfdcr/mtdcr, while the new API is designed for
 device "instances" that can exist on 4xx and Axon type platforms and may
 be located at variable DCR offsets.

0f18e719dc Use dcr_host_t.base in ibm_emac_mal
This requires us to do a sort-of fake dcr_map(), so that base is set
properly. This will be fixed/removed when the device-tree-aware emac driver
is merged.

dd957c57c5 net/bonding: Optionally allow ethernet slaves to keep own MAC
Update the "don't change MAC of slaves" functionality added in
previous changes to be a generic option, rather than something tied to
IB devices, as it's occasionally useful for regular ethernet devices as
well.

	Adds "fail_over_mac" option (which is automatically enabled for IB
slaves), applicable only to active-backup mode.

	Includes documentation update.

	Updates bonding driver version to 3.2.0.

d90a162a4e net/bonding: Destroy bonding master when last slave is gone
When bonding enslaves non Ethernet devices it takes pointers to functions
in the module that owns the slaves. In this case it becomes unsafe
to keep the bonding master registered after last slave was unenslaved
because we don't know if the pointers are still valid.  Destroying the bond when slave_cnt is zero
ensures that these functions be used anymore.

6b1bf09650 net/bonding: Enable IP multicast for bonding IPoIB devices
Allow to enslave devices when the bonding device is not up. Over the discussion
held at the previous post this seemed to be the most clean way to go, where it
is not expected to cause instabilities.

Normally, the bonding driver is UP before any enslavement takes place.
Once a netdevice is UP, the network stack acts to have it join some multicast groups
(eg the all-hosts 224.0.0.1). Now, since ether_setup() have set the bonding device
type to be ARPHRD_ETHER and address len to be ETHER_ALEN, the net core code
computes a wrong multicast link address. This is b/c ip_eth_mc_map() is called
where for multicast joins taking place after the enslavement another ip_xxx_mc_map()
is called (eg ip_ib_mc_map() when the bond type is ARPHRD_INFINIBAND)

2ab82852a2 net/bonding: Enable bonding to enslave netdevices not supporting set_mac_address()
This patch allows for enslaving netdevices which do not support
the set_mac_address() function. In that case the bond mac address is the one
of the active slave, where remote peers are notified on the mac address
(neighbour) change by Gratuitous ARP sent by bonding when fail-over occurs
(this is already done by the bonding code).

872254dd6b net/bonding: Enable bonding to enslave non ARPHRD_ETHER
This patch changes some of the bond netdevice attributes and functions
to be that of the active slave for the case of the enslaved device not being
of ARPHRD_ETHER type. Basically it overrides those setting done by ether_setup(),
which are netdevice **type** dependent and hence might be not appropriate for
devices of other types. It also enforces mutual exclusion on bonding slaves
from dissimilar ether types, as was concluded over the v1 discussion.

IPoIB (see Documentation/infiniband/ipoib.txt) MAC address is made of a 3 bytes
IB QP (Queue Pair) number and 16 bytes IB port GID (Global ID) of the port this
IPoIB device is bounded to. The QP is a resource created by the IB HW and the
GID is an identifier burned into the HCA (i have omitted here some details which
are not important for the bonding RFC).

Commit 3d73c288 ("mlx4_core: Fix section mismatches") introduced a
stupid bug in device init: when some of mlx4_init_one() was split off
into __mlx4_init_one(), the call from the main mlx4_init_one()
function was back to mlx4_init_one() rather than to __mlx4_init_one(),
which leads to an obvious infinite loop if the function is every
called.

6f53576316 [NET]: Fix NAPI completion handling in some drivers.
In order for the list handling in net_rx_action() to be
correct, drivers must follow certain rules as stated by
this comment in net_rx_action():

		/* Drivers must not modify the NAPI state if they
		 * consume the entire weight.  In such cases this code
		 * still "owns" the NAPI instance and therefore can
		 * move the instance around on the list at-will.
		 */

A few drivers do not do this because they mix the budget checks
with reading hardware state, resulting in crashes like the one
reported by takano@axe-inc.co.jp.

BNX2 and TG3 are taken care of here, SKY2 fix is from Stephen
Hemminger.
