34f80b04f3 bnx2x: Add support for BCM57711 HW
Supporting the 57711 and 57711E - refers to in the code as E1H. The
57710 is referred to as E1.

To support the new members in the family, the bnx2x structure was
divided to 3 parts: common, port and function. These changes caused some
rearrangement in the bnx2x.h file.

A set of accessories macros were added to make access to the bnx2x
structure more readable

84aee4889e ibm_emac: Remove the ibm_emac driver
The arch/ppc sub-tree has been removed in the powerpc git tree.  The old
ibm_emac driver is no longer used by anything as a result of this.  This
removes it, leaving the ibm_newemac driver as the proper driver to use for
PowerPC boards with the EMAC hardware.

5beaf7d6f8 Make pasemi_mac.c depend on PPC_PASEMI to prevent link errors
drivers/net/pasemi_mac.c is enabled by CONFIG_PASEMI_MAC, which depends on
PPC64 && PCI. However pasemi_mac.c uses several routines that are only
built when PPC_PASEMI is selected. This can lead to an unbuildable config:

 ERROR: ".pasemi_dma_start_chan" [drivers/net/pasemi_mac.ko] undefined!

So make CONFIG_PASEMI_MAC depend on PPC_PASEMI instead of PPC64.

8353ec7b0d cpmac: convert to new Fixed PHY infrastructure
This patch converts cpmac to the new Fixed PHY infrastructure, though it
doesn't fix all the problems with that driver. I didn't even bother to
test this patch to compile, because cpmac driver is broken in several ways:

1. This driver won't compile by itself because lack of its header describing
   platform data;
2. It assumes that fixed PHYs should be created by the ethernet driver.
   It is wrong assumption: fixed PHYs creation is platform code authority,
   driver must blindly accept bus_id and phy_id platform data variables
   instead.

Also, it seem that that driver doesn't have actual in-tree users, so
nothing to fix further.

The main purpose of that patch is to get rid of the following Kconfig
warning:

scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/powerpc/Kconfig
drivers/net/Kconfig:1713:warning: 'select' used by config symbol
'CPMAC' refers to undefined symbol 'FIXED_MII_100_FDX'

60e233172e [net] Gracefully handle shared e1000/1000e driver PCI ID's
Both the old e1000 driver and the new e1000e driver can drive some
PCI-Express e1000 cards, and we should avoid ambiguity about which
driver will pick up the support for those cards when both drivers are
enabled.

This solves the problem by having the old driver support those cards if
the new driver isn't configured, but otherwise ceding support for PCI
Express versions of the e1000 chipset to the newer driver.  Thus
allowing both legacy configurations where only the old driver is active
(and handles all chips it knows about) and the new configuration with
the new driver handling the more modern PCIE variants.

5b10ca19ea Mostly revert "e1000/e1000e: Move PCI-Express device IDs over to e1000e"
The new e1000e driver is apparently not yet suitable for general use, so
mark it experimental, and re-instate all the PCI-Express device IDs in
the old and stable e1000 driver so that people (namely me) can continue
to use a driver that actually works.

Auke & co have been appraised of the situation.

9d5c824399 igb: PCI-Express 82575 Gigabit Ethernet driver
We are pleased to announce a new Gigabit Ethernet product and its
driver to the linux community. This product is the Intel(R) 82575
Gigabit Ethernet adapter family. Physical adapters will be available
to the public soon. These adapters come in 2- and 4-port versions
(copper PHY) currently. Other variants will be available later.

The 82575 chipset supports significantly different features that
warrant a new driver. The descriptor format is (just like the
ixgbe driver) different. The device can use multiple MSI-X vectors
and multiple queues for both send and receive. This allows us to
optimize some of the driver code specifically as well compared to
the e1000-supported devices.

This version of the igb driver no lnger uses fake netdevices and
incorporates napi_struct members for each ring to do the multi-
queue polling. multi-queue is enabled by default and the driver
supports NAPI mode only.

All the namespace collisions should be gone in this version too. The
register macro's have been condensed to improve readability.
