0da2f0f164 potential compiler error, irqfunc caller sites update
In 7d12e780e003f93433d49ce78cfedf4b4c52adc5 David Howells performed
this evolution:
 "IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers"

He correctly updated many of the function definitions that were using this
extra regs pointer parameter but forgot to update some caller sites of
those functions.  The reason the modifications was not properly done on all
drivers is that some drivers were rarely compiled because they are for
AMIGA, or that some code sites were inside #ifdefs where the option is not
set or inside #if 0.

Here is the semantic patch that found the occurences
and fixed the problem.

The EMAC driver, in drivers/net/ibm_emac, for the embedded Ethernet
MAC found in PowerPC 4xx embedded chips is not suitable for
arch/powerpc.  It will not build because it relies on the old arch/ppc
OCP mechanism.  BenH has a new, device-tree aware version of the
driver which will work in arch/powerpc, but until it's merged, this
patch will disable the old, non-building version.

cbcdd772ff smsc-ircc2: bypass PNP detection until we get the quirks worked out
Don't use PNP detection by default yet.  We have some PNP and BIOS issues
to work out first.

Sample problem on a Toshiba Portege 4000: the SMCf010 device is handed off
disabled.  We assign I/O ports originally assigned to the SMCf010 to a
PCMCIA device instead.  We enable the SMCf010, configuring it to use
disjoint ports, but _SRS doesn't work correctly, so the device doesn't
work.

59faba1b31 Fix Kconfig dependency problems wrt boolean menuconfigs
If one has a dependency chain (tristate)FOO depends on (bool)BAR depends on
(tristate)BAZ, build problems will result.  If BAZ=m, then BAR can be set
y, which allows FOO=y.  It's possible to have FOO=y && BAZ=m, which
wouldn't be allowed if FOO depended directly on BAZ.  In effect, the bool
promotes the tristate from m to y.

This ends up causing a problem with several menuconfigs that look like:

menuconfig BAR
	bool
	depends on BAZ [tristate]
if BAR
config FOO
	tristate
endif

The solution used here is to add the dependencies of BAR to the if
statement, so that items in the if block will gain a direct
non-bool-promoted dependency on BAZ.  This is how it would work if a menu
was used instead of an if block.

7c31d2f59c smsc-ircc2: skip preconfiguration for PNP devices
If we rely on the device resources from PNPBIOS, we also have to rely on
the BIOS to configure any bridges on the way to the device.

Using the PNPBIOS resources but changing the configuration of a bridge
behind the back of the firmware is likely to make things inconsistent.

This patch addresses part of the 2.6.22 regression:
    "no irda0 interface (2.6.21 was OK), smsc does not find chip"
It fixes smsc-ircc2 PNP device detection on HP nx5000 laptops.
Other laptops, including HP nc6000, HP nc8000, HP nw8000, and Toshiba
Portege 4000, still need PNP quirks to make this work.

With "smsc-ircc2.nopnp", we do the legacy device probe, including manual
bridge preconfiguration, as before.

2cc49a5ca1 forcedeth: use unicast receive mode for WoL
I happened to notice that a system with an NVidia NIC using the
forcedeth driver won't wake-on-LAN if the interface was in promiscuous
mode when you power off.  By experiment, it looks like
the hardware needs to have NvRegPacketFilterFlags set to
NVREG_PFF_ALWAYS|NVREG_PFF_MYADDR (i.e., receive unicast packets to my
address) in order for WoL to work.

031ae4deb0 bonding: Fix 802.3ad no carrier on "no partner found" instance
Modify carrier state determination for 802.3ad mode to comply
with section 43.3.9 of IEEE 802.3, which requires that "Links that are
not successful candidates for aggregation (e.g., links that are attached
to other devices that cannot perform aggregation or links that have been
manually configured to be non-aggregatable) are enabled to operate as
individual IEEE 802.3 links."

	Bug reported by Laurent Chavey <chavey@google.com>.  This patch
is an updated version of his patch that changes the wording of
commentary and adds an update to the driver version.

3201e656ce bonding: Fix use after free in unregister path
The following patch (based on a patch from Stephen Hemminger
<shemminger@linux-foundation.org>) removes use after free conditions in
the unregister path for the bonding master.  Without this patch, an
operation of the form "echo -bond0 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters"
would trigger a NULL pointer dereference in sysfs.  I was not able to
induce the failure with the non-sysfs code path, but for consistency I
updated that code as well.

	I also did some testing of the bonding /proc file being open
while the bond is being deleted, and didn't see any problems there.

3a2c892daa spidernet: checksum and ethtool
It doesn't look like spidernet hardware can really checksum all protocols,
the code looks like it does IPV4 only.  If so, it should use NETIF_F_IP_CSUM
instead of NETIF_F_HW_CSUM.

The driver doesn't need it's own get/set for ethtool tx csum, and it
should use the standard ethtool_op_get_link.

128c6e2e51 spidernet: turn off descriptor chain end interrupt.
At some point, the transmit descriptor chain end interrupt (TXDCEINT)
was turned on. This is a mistake; and it damages small packet
transmit performance, as it results in a huge storm of interrupts.
Turn it off.
