Implement NAPI changes to pcnet32 driver. Compile default is off.
Listed as experimental.
Len and Don both worked on a NAPI implementation and have both tested
these changes.
An e1000 blasting short packets to the pcnet32 will lockup Don's system
until the receive storm stops. Without NAPI Len's system watchdog would
expire causing the system to reboot. With NAPI the system will stay
operational.
Tested ia32 and ppc64. Tested '970A, '971, '972, '973, '975, '976, and
'978.
The Kconfig changes came from Len. Don is to blame for all the others.

The commit 'e1000: Remove 0x1000 as supported device' (Jeff Kirsher,
673a052fde) Removes PIC device ID 8086:1000
from the list of supported devices. A fix was submitted for the original
issue (commit 6a9516989f).
This commit reverts commit 673a052fde and
re-enables 82542rev3 chips completely.

Commit 581d708eb4 (oct. 5 2005) introduced
partial Multiqueue support for e1000 which broke macro smartness in setting
up head/tail registers for 82542 rev3 chipsets, making these adapters
completely non-working since 2.6.15.
This commit sets the proper head and tail registers for read and write
descriptor rings. Ths fix was tested on an 82542 rev3 NIC and newer NICs.

As I promised last week, here is the first pass at removing all
unnecessary printk's that exist in network device drivers currently in
promiscuous mode. The duplicate messages are not needed so they have
been removed. Some of these drivers are quite old and might not need an
update, but I did them all anyway.
I am currently auditing the remaining conditional printk's and will send
out a patch for those soon.

Inverting the write ordering of the TxDescAddr{High/Low} registers
suffices to trigger a sabbat of PCI errors which make the device
completely dysfunctional. The issue has not been reported on a
different platform.
Switching from MMIO accesses to I/O ones as done in Realtek's
own driver fixes (papers over ?) the bug as well but I am not
thrilled to see everyone pay the I/O price for an obscure bug.
This is the minimal change to handle the issue.

dm9000_release_board calls release_resource with the platform resource
instead of the requested resource:
db->addr_res = platform_get_resource(pdev, IORESOURCE_MEM, 0);
db->addr_req = request_mem_region(db->addr_res->start, i, pdev->name);
dm9000_release_board:
if (db->addr_res != NULL) {
release_resource(db->addr_res);
kfree(db->addr_req);
With this behavior the kernel will crash on the second removal. The
attached patch fix this problem.

This removes unnecessary messages that show up every time I put my
ethernet card in promiscuous mode. I'm already getting notification
from the networking layer, I don't need notification from the driver as
well.
There are probably other drivers that do this as well -- I'll look
around and see what I can find.
