c6e429bdd6 [PATCH] pm3386: implement reset
Implement pm3386 reset.  A reset zeroes out the internally stored MAC
addresses, so we need to save and reload them by hand.

df86550602 [PATCH] pm3386: add hook for setting carrier
Add a pm3386 hook for disabling/enabling the SERDES carrier, so that
we can disable it when the interface is administratively downed, and
enable it when it is upped.

0b85c0ebde [PATCH] pm3386: add hook for setting MAC address
When we reset the pm3386, it loses its internally stored MAC addresses
that were programmed into it by the bootloader (and are used by the
hardware for the generation of PAUSE frames.)  Add a hook to allow
setting these addresses so that we can program them back by hand.

6744a5069b [PATCH] caleb/pm3386: include proper header files
Make caleb.c and pm3386.c include their own header files, to catch
incorrect prototype definitions.

15d014d131 [PATCH] intel ixp2000 network driver
The way the hardware and firmware work is that there is one shared RX
queue and IRQ for a number of different network interfaces.  Due to this,
we would like to process received packets for every interface in the same
NAPI poll handler, so we need a pseudo-device to schedule polling on.

What the driver currently does is that it always schedules polling for
the first network interface in the list, and processes packets for every
interface in the poll handler for that first interface -- however, this
scheme breaks down if the first network interface happens to not be up,
since netif_rx_schedule_prep() checks netif_running().

sky2 apparently has the same issue, and Stephen Hemminger suggested a
way to work around this: create a variant of netif_rx_schedule_prep()
that does not check netif_running().  I implemented this locally and
called it netif_rx_schedule_prep_notup(), and it seems to work well,
but it's something that probably not everyone would be happy with.

The ixp2000 is an ARM CPU with a high-speed network interface in the
CPU itself (full duplex 4Gb/s or 10Gb/s depending on the IXP model.)
The CPU package also contains 8 or 16 (again depending on the IXP
model) 'microengines', which are somewhat primitive but very fast
and efficient processor cores which can be used to offload various
things from the main CPU.

This driver makes the high-speed network interface in the CPU visible
and usable as a regular linux network device.  Currently, it only
supports the Radisys ENP2611 IXP board, but adding support for other
board types should be fairly easy.
