When changing ring size, we free all memory including status block
memory. If we're in INTA mode and sharing IRQ, the IRQ handler can
be called and it will reference the NULL status block pointer.
Because of the lockless design of the IRQ handler, there is no simple
way to synchronize and prevent this. So we avoid this problem by
freeing the IRQ handler before freeing the status block memory.

Michael pointed out that bnx2_close() already cancels bp->reset_task

flush_scheduled_work() is on its way out. This patch contains simple
conversions to replace flush_scheduled_work() usage with direct
cancels and flushes.
Directly cancel the used works on driver detach and flush them in
other cases.
The conversions are mostly straight forward and the only dangers are,
* Forgetting to cancel/flush one or more used works.
* Cancelling when a work should be flushed (ie. the work must be
executed once scheduled whether the driver is detaching or not).
I've gone over the changes multiple times but it would be much
appreciated if you can review with the above points in mind.

Many (but not all) drivers check to see whether there is a vlan
group configured before using a tag stored in the skb. There's
not much point in this check since it just throws away data that
should only be present in the expected circumstances. However,
it will soon be legal and expected to get a vlan tag when no
vlan group is configured, so remove this check from all drivers
to avoid dropping the tags.

smp_mb() inside bnx2_tx_avail() is used twice in the normal
bnx2_start_xmit() path (see illustration below). The full memory
barrier is only necessary during race conditions with tx completion.
We can speed up the tx path by replacing smp_mb() in bnx2_tx_avail()
with a compiler barrier. The compiler barrier is to force the
compiler to fetch the tx_prod and tx_cons from memory.
In the race condition between bnx2_start_xmit() and bnx2_tx_int(),
we have the following situation:
bnx2_start_xmit() bnx2_tx_int()
if (!bnx2_tx_avail())
BUG();
...
if (!bnx2_tx_avail())
netif_tx_stop_queue(); update_tx_index();
smp_mb(); smp_mb();
if (bnx2_tx_avail()) if (netif_tx_queue_stopped() &&
netif_tx_wake_queue(); bnx2_tx_avail())
With smp_mb() removed from bnx2_tx_avail(), we need to add smp_mb() to
bnx2_start_xmit() as shown above to properly order netif_tx_stop_queue()
and bnx2_tx_avail() to check the ring index. If it is not strictly
ordered, the tx queue can be stopped forever.
This improves performance by about 5% with 2 ports running bi-directional
64-byte packets.

This removes dma_get_ops() prefetch optimization in bnx2.
bnx2 uses dma_get_ops() to see if dma_sync_single_for_cpu() is
noop. bnx2 does prefetch if it's noop.
But dma_get_ops() isn't available on all the architectures (only the
architectures that uses dma_map_ops struct have it). Using
dma_get_ops() in drivers leads to compilation breakage on many
architectures.
This patch removes dma_get_ops() and changes bnx2 to do prefetch on
all the architectures. This adds useless prefetch on non-coherent
architectures but this is harmless. It is also unlikely to cause the
performance drop.

The regression is caused by:
commit 4327ba435a56ada13eedf3eb332e583c7a0586a9
bnx2: Fix netpoll crash.
If ->open() and ->close() are called multiple times, the same napi structs
will be added to dev->napi_list multiple times, corrupting the dev->napi_list.
This causes free_netdev() to hang during rmmod.
We fix this by calling netif_napi_del() during ->close().
Also, bnx2_init_napi() must not be in the __devinit section since it is
called by ->open().

Based on original patch from Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com>.
Using netif_carrier_off() is better than updating all the ->trans_start
on all the tx queues.
netif_carrier_off() needs to be called after bnx2_disable_int_sync()
to guarantee no race conditions with the serdes timers that can
modify the carrier state.
If the chip or phy is reset, carrier will turn back on when we get the
link interrupt. If there is no reset, we need to turn carrier back on
in bnx2_netif_start(). Again, the phy_lock prevents race conditions with
the serdes timers.

Use prefetchw() for the skb [suggested by Eric Dumazet].
The rx descriptor is in skb->data which is mapped for streaming mode DMA.
Eric Dumazet pointed out that we should not prefetch the data before

The bonding driver calls ndo_vlan_rx_register() while holding bond->lock.
The bnx2 driver calls bnx2_netif_stop() to stop the rx handling while
changing the vlgrp. The call also stops the cnic driver which sleeps
while the bond->lock is held and cause the warning.
This code path only needs to stop the NAPI rx handling while we are
changing the vlgrp. Since no reset is going to occur, there is no need
to stop cnic in this case. By adding a parameter to bnx2_netif_stop()
to skip stopping cnic, we can avoid the warning.

It has been reported that under certain heavy traffic conditions in MSI-X
mode, the driver can lose an MSI-X vector causing all packets in the
associated rx/tx ring pair to be dropped. The problem is caused by
the chip dropping the write to unmask the MSI-X vector by the kernel
(when migrating the IRQ for example).
This can be prevented by increasing the GRC timeout value for these
register read and write operations.
Thanks to Dell for helping us debug this problem.

The bnx2 driver calls netif_napi_add() for all the NAPI structs during
->probe() time but not all of them will be used if we're not in MSI-X
mode. This creates a problem for netpoll since it will poll all the
NAPI structs in the dev_list whether or not they are scheduled, resulting
in a crash when we access structure fields not initialized for that vector.
We fix it by moving the netif_napi_add() call to ->open() after the number
of IRQ vectors has been determined.
