For some drivers it can be useful to know whether the channel they're
supposed to switch to is going to be used for short off-channel work or
scanning, or whether the hardware is expected to stay on it for a while
longer. This is important for various kinds of calibration work, which
takes longer to complete and should keep some persistent state, even if
the channel temporarily changes.

This reverts this commit. While in theory the change is
correct the patch does not address current assumptions made
by some drivers, one which is definitley affected is ath9k.
Prior to this change the scan complete callback would be
called after we returned to the home channel and configured
the hardware RX filters. After this change we call the scan
complete callback prior to both the hw config and the config
filter. At least for ath9k this breaks quite a few assumptions
on the callback, leading to disconnects to the AP after every scan
making the driver pretty useless on STA mode. The goal behind
this commit was to address the now understood spurious warnings
from ath9k and mac80211_hwsim on scanning on two wiphys at the
same time but we have now supressed these and will address this
issue in the next kernel release.
When fixing this for good next we must first review the other
driver's dependence on this logic and perhaps consider removal
of the scan complete callback all together.

When issuing two consecutive scans you could often end up
getting in the logs:
"ath9k: Two wiphys trying to scan at the same time"
This message is due to a race in mac80211 but addressing
that race requires some more major changes on the driver
and perhaps optimizations on mac80211 like removing the
scan complete callback alltogether. Its too late to address
this this kernel release so supress the complaint and annotate
this needs fixing for later.

Replace vhost_workqueue with per-vhost kthread. Other than callback
argument change from struct work_struct * to struct vhost_work *,
there's no visible change to vhost_poll_*() interface.
This conversion is to make each vhost use a dedicated kthread so that
resource control via cgroup can be applied.
Partially based on Sridhar Samudrala's patch.
* Updated to use sub structure vhost_work instead of directly using
vhost_poll at Michael's suggestion.
* Added flusher wake_up() optimization at Michael's suggestion.

The MAC-PHY interconnect on 82577/82578 uses a power management feature
(called K1) which must be disabled when in 1Gbps due to a hardware issue on
these parts. The #define bit setting used to enable/disable K1 is
incorrect and can cause PHY register accesses to stop working altogether
until the next device reset. This patch sets the register correctly.
This issue is present in kernels since 2.6.32.

This patch adds support for RX and TX DMA via the DMA API,
this is only supported when the KS8842 is accessed via timberdale.
There is no support for DMA on the generic bus interface it self,
a state machine inside the FPGA is handling RX and TX transfers to/from
buffers in the FPGA. The host CPU can do DMA to and from these buffers.
The FPGA has to handle the RX interrupts, so these must be enabled in
the ks8842 but not in the FPGA. The driver must not disable the RX interrupt
that would mean that the data transfers into the FPGA buffers would stop.
The host shall not enable TX interrupts since TX is handled by the FPGA,
the host is notified by DMA callbacks when transfers are finished.
Which DMA channels to use are added as parameters in the platform data struct.

For Simple Ethernet frames (802.2 and 802.3) the GMAC Core
never strips pad and fcs. This means the ACS has no effect
on IPv4/6 frames.
The FL bits, in the RDES0, include the FCS so the driver
has to remove it in SW.
For 802.3 frame format with LLC or LLC-SNAP, when set the ACS
bit, the HW strips both PAD and FCS.
The FL bits, in the RDES0, actually represents the frame length
already stripped.
This patch fixes this logic within the device driver that
erroneously removed 4byte from 802.3 frames already stripped
corrupting the payload.

The driver erroneously sets the tmrate to zero when the
TMU initialisation fails. This actually generates problems
while using the dual GMAC configuration.
With this patch, enabling both the dual gmac and the timer
optimisation, the first interface opened will use the tmu
channel 2, the second one won't be able to use the timer but
will continue to work without mitigating the interrupts by
using the external timer (i.e. TMU channel 2).
