4f9de721ab NET/e1000e: Fix powering off during shutdown
Prevent e1000e from putting the adapter into D3 during shutdown except when
we're going to power off the system, since doing that may generally cause
problems with kexec to happen (such problems were observed for igb and
forcedeth).  For this purpose seperate e1000e_shutdown() from e1000e_suspend()
and use the appropriate PCI PM callbacks in both of them.

76620aafd6 gro: New frags interface to avoid copying shinfo
It turns out that copying a 16-byte area at ~800k times a second
can be really expensive :) This patch redesigns the frags GRO
interface to avoid copying that area twice.

The two disciples of the frags interface have been converted.

95615d90a3 ixgbe: fix tx queue index
Don't do the num_tx_queues based masking on calculating tx queue
index.

 1) num_tx_queues is not always power-of-2, because it also depends on
    the online cpu numbers. So the masking could be a performance bug
    on a 6 cpu system.
 2) queue_mapping will be limited by real_num_tx_queues=num_tx_queues
    in the generic netdev function set_cur_queue_map(). So the bound
    limiting here is not necessary.

zero-length frames have meaning because at the top level ROSE is

239795adf7 sfc: Use correct macro to set event bitfield
falcon_sim_phy_event() used EFX_OWORD_FIELD, which operates on
bitfields in 128-bit values, on an event, which is a 64-bit value.
This should be harmless - these macros always use little-endian
ordering, so it would read and write back the following 8 bytes
unchanged - but it is obviously wrong.

d119b39279 skge: fix occasional BUG during MTU change
The BUG_ON(skge->tx_ring.to_use != skge->tx_ring.to_clean) in skge_up()
was sometimes observed when setting MTU.

skge_down() disables the TX queue, but then reenables it by mistake via
skge_tx_clean().
Fix it by moving the waking of the queue from skge_tx_clean() to the
other caller. And to make sure start_xmit is not in progress on another
CPU, skge_down() should call netif_tx_disable().

The bug was reported to me by Jiri Jilek whose Debian system sometimes
failed to boot. He tested the patch and the bug did not happen anymore.

861ab44059 NET/r8169: Rework suspend and resume
The recent changes of the PCI PM core allow us to simplify the
suspend and resume handling in a number of device drivers, since they
don't need to carry out the general PCI PM operations, such as
changing the power state of the device, during suspend and resume any
more.

Simplify the suspend and resume callbacks of r8169 using the
observation that the PCI PM core can take care of some operations
carried out by the driver.

Additionally, make the shutdown callback of r8169 only put the device
into a low power state if the system is going to be powered off
(kexec is known to have problems with network adapters that are put
into low power states on shutdown).

This patch has been tested on MSI Wind U100.

1db9e29bb0 gro: Normalise skb before bypassing GRO on netpoll VLAN path
Hi:

gro: Normalise skb before bypassing GRO on netpoll VLAN path

When we detect netpoll RX on the GRO VLAN path we bail out and
call the normal VLAN receive handler.  However, the packet needs
to be normalised by calling eth_type_trans since that's what the
normal path expects (normally the GRO path does the fixup).

This patch adds the necessary call to vlan_gro_frags.

dcd07be3ff phylib: Add interrupt source check function to M88E1121R driver
Add did_interrupt() function to check if a PHY port
really caused an interrupt. This is needed in the case
of shared PHY interrupt pin configuration to stop
interrupt event processing for PHY ports which didn't
cause an interrupt.

a8729eb302 phylib: Allow early-out in phy_change
Marvell 88E1121R Dual PHY device can be hardware-configured
to use shared interrupt pin for both PHY ports. For such
PHY configurations using shared PHY interrupt phy_interrupt()
handler will also schedule a work for PHY port which didn't
cause an interrupt.

This patch adds a possibility for PHY drivers to provide
did_interrupt() function which reports if the PHY (or a PHY
port in a multi-PHY device) generated an interrupt. This
function is called in phy_change() as phy_change() shouldn't
proceed if it is invoked for a PHY which didn't cause an
interrupt. So check for interrupt originator in phy_change()
to allow early-out.

0d489ffb76 tg3: fix big endian MAC address collection failure
We noticed on parisc that our broadcoms all swapped MAC addresses going
from 2.6.29 to 2.6.30-rc1:

Apr 11 07:48:24 ion kernel: eth0: Tigon3 [partno(BCM95700A6) rev 0105] (PCI:66MHz:64-bit) MAC address 00:30:6e:4b:15:59
Apr 13 07:34:34 ion kernel: eth0: Tigon3 [partno(BCM95700A6) rev 0105] (PCI:66MHz:64-bit) MAC address 00:00:59:15:4b:6e

The problem patch is:

commit 6d348f2c1e
Author: Matt Carlson <mcarlson@broadcom.com>
Date:   Wed Feb 25 14:25:52 2009 +0000

    tg3: Eliminate tg3_nvram_read_swab()

With the root cause being the use of memcpy to set the mac address:

   memcpy(&dev->dev_addr[0], ((char *)&hi) + 2, 2);
   memcpy(&dev->dev_addr[2], (char *)&lo, sizeof(lo));

This might work on little endian machines, but it can't on big endian
ones.  You have to use the original setting mechanism to be correct on
all architectures.

The attached patch fixes parisc.
