c79d9c9e9a net/hp100: fix section mismatch warning
Fix following section mismatch warning in hp100:

WARNING: drivers/net/hp100.o(.init.text+0x26a): Section mismatch: reference to .exit.text: (after 'init_module')

The warning says that we use a function marked __exit from a
function marked __init.
This is not good on architectures where we discard __exit section
for drivers that are built-in.

Note: This warning is only seen by my local copy of modpost
      but the change will soon hit upstream.

632155e659 potential parse error in ifdef
I have made a tool to parse the kernel that does not pre-process the
source.  That means that my parser tries to parse all the code, including
code in the #else branch or code that is not often compiled because the
driver is not very used (or not used at all).  So, my parser sometimes
reports parse error not originally detected by gcc.  Here is my (first)
patch.

4731305435 e1000: restore netif_poll_enable call but make sure IRQs are off
This restores the previously removed netif_poll_enable call in e1000_open.
It's needed on all but the first call to e1000_open for a NIC as
e1000_close always calls netif_poll_disable.

netif_poll_enable can only be called safely if no polls have been
scheduled.  This should be the case as long as we don't enter our IRQ
handler.

In order to guarantee this we explicitly disable IRQs as early as possible
when we're probing the NIC.

When hostap_tx_encrypt() tries to allocate enough headroom and
tailroom for ieee80211 encryption, it only makes enough room for the
"mpdu" phase of the operation, but forgets about the "msdu" phase.
(For TKIP, these two phases require, respectively, 4 and 8 bytes of
tailroom, per the "ieee80211_crypt_tkip" structure at the bottom of
net/ieee80211/ieee80211_crypt_tkip.c.)

The hardware must not see that is given ownership of a buffer until it is

it must ensure that any other reads to the buffer reflect its final
state.  Thus, I/O barriers are added where required.

bdp->length and bdp->status in gfar_new_skb.  Hardware reordering

5bb96e9f24 ibm_emac: improved PHY support
Original patch is from Jeff Haran  <jharan@brocade.com> with my minor style
fixes. His comments follow:

The first problem was in the function that configures the PHY for
autonegotiation, genmii_setup_aneg(). The original code does a
read/modify/write of the autonegotiation advertizement register (reg 4),
followed by a read/modify/write of the control register (reg 0). While
the original code follows the proper procedure as per reading the IEEE
specs, what I found is that on at least one PHY model (National DP83843)
the read of the control register comes back with the soft reset bit set
(bit 15). Because of the read/modify/write operation, this causes the
write to write a 1 back to the reset bit, which initiates a software
reset of the PHY. This software reset causes the PHY to return to its
power up state which advertizes all modes of operation, thus negating
the write to the autoneg advertizement register. The modification is to
spin reading the control register until the soft reset bit is clear
before doing the modify/write.
The second problem was in the function that configures the PHY for
forced operation, genmii_setup_forced(). The original code initiates a
software reset operation via a write of a 1 to bit 15 of the control
register (reg 0), but then proceeds to do a second write to that same
register without waiting until that reset bit is cleared by the PHY
itself (which according to the IEEE specs indicates that the PHY reset
is complete). This is a violation of how one is supposed to use this
software reset feature of these PHYs and I believe was the cause of
mysterious, difficult to reproduce link failures that we've observed on
some of our systems that use this driver. The fix is to modify the
function so that it spins waiting for the reset bit to clear after doing
the soft reset and before doing the subsequent write.

50432cb534 sky2: memory barriers change
Do some memory barrier changes for safety/perfomance:
Don't need read after update to index, mmiowb() followed by read at end
of irq is sufficient.
