SKBs hold onto resources that can't be held indefinitely, such as TCP
socket references and netfilter conntrack state. So if a packet is left
in TX ring for a long time, there might be a TCP socket that cannot be
closed and freed up.
Current blackfin EMAC driver always reclaim and free used tx skbs in future
transfers. The problem is that future transfer may not come as soon as
possible. This patch start a timer after transfer to reclaim and free skb.
There is nearly no performance drop with this patch.
TX interrupt is not enabled because of a strange behavior of the Blackfin EMAC.
If EMAC TX transfer control is turned on, endless TX interrupts are triggered
no matter if TX DMA is enabled or not. Since DMA walks down the ring automatically,
TX transfer control can't be turned off in the middle. The only way is to disable
TX interrupt completely.

Rather than using the Receive All Frames (RAF) bit to enable promiscuous
mode, use the Promiscuous (PR) bit. This lowers overhead at runtime as
we let the hardware process the packets that should actually be checked.

IP checksum is based on 16-bit one's complement algorithm, so to deduce a
value from checksum is equal to add its complement.
Unfortunately, the Blackfin on-chip MAC checksum logic only works when the
IP packet has a header length of 20 bytes. This is true for most IPv4
packets, but not for IPv6 packets or IPv4 packets which use header options.
So only use the hardware checksum when appropriate.

The skb buffer isn't actually used until we finish transferring and pass
it up to higher layers, so only invalidate the range once before we start
receiving actual data. This also avoids the problem with data invalidating
on Blackfin systems -- there is no invalidate-only, just invalidate+flush.
So when running in writeback mode, there is the small (but not uncommon)
possibility of the flush overwriting valid DMA-ed data from the cache.

This patch removes from drivers/net/ all the unnecessary
return; statements that precede the last closing brace of
void functions.
It does not remove the returns that are immediately
preceded by a label as gcc doesn't like that.
It also does not remove null void functions with return.
Done via:
$ grep -rP --include=*.[ch] -l "return;\n}" net/ | \
xargs perl -i -e 'local $/ ; while (<>) { s/\n[ \t\n]+return;\n}/\n}/g; print; }'
with some cleanups by hand.

Writes to the DMA descriptors may sit in the internal Blackfin data buffers
and not actually be available when the DMA engine goes to fetch them. This
does not typically happen, but when dealing with short/fast packets such as
UDP and polling KGDB, this occurs much more frequently. Same goes for
heavy loads as seen by netperf tests or large scp transfers. So force the
buffers to drain with SSYNC otherwise we get random malformed packets.

The drivers were touching net queue before it has been started, so
without this patch, the drivers will potentially WARN at
net/core/dev.c:1328.
I don't have the hardware for the drivers below, so this patch is
untested, and thus should be carefully peer reviewed.
tc35815.c
au1000_eth.c
bfin_mac.c
macb.c
^ The four drivers are using phylib, they're calling netif_start_queue()
in open() callback. So trivially remove netif_tx_schedule_all().
Phylib will handle netif_carrier_*().
cpmac.c
fec_mpc52xx.c
fs_enet/fs_enet-main.c
sh_eth.c
^ The same as above, but these were also needlessly calling
netif_carrier_*() functions. So removed queue calls and also remove
carrier calls, since phylib will handle it. fs_enet-main.c also didn't
call netif_start_queue() at open(), this is fixed now.

Since 43cc71eed1250755986da4c0f9898f9a635cb3bf, the platform modalias is
prefixed with "platform:". Add MODULE_ALIAS() to the hotpluggable network
platform drivers, to re-enable auto loading.
NOTE: didn't change drivers/net/fs_enet/fs_enet-main.c "old binding" support.
That looks problematic in the first place (it even uses the ancient "struct
device_driver" binding scheme for platform_bus!) and I suspect it will vanish
soonish when arch/powerpc rules the world. Also, drivers/net/ne.c would have
needed more thought to sort out.
