68e7f45e11 sfc: Use generic MDIO functions and definitions
Make use of the newly-added generic MDIO clause 45 support and remove
redundant definitions.

Add an 'efx_' prefix to the remaining driver-specific MDIO functions
and remove arguments which are redundant with efx->mdio.prtad.

da3bc07171 sfc: Replace LRO with GRO
This patch makes sfc invoke the GRO hooks instead of LRO.  As
GRO has a compatible external interface to LRO this is a very
straightforward replacement.

Everything should appear identical to the user except that the
offload is now controlled by the GRO ethtool option instead of
LRO.  I've kept the lro module parameter as is since that's for
compatibility only.

I have eliminated efx_rx_mk_skb as the GRO layer can take care
of all packets regardless of whether GRO is enabled or not.

So the only case where we don't call GRO is if the packet checksum
is absent.  This is to keep the behaviour changes of the patch to
a minimum.

8761169cf1 sfc: Fix dependency for SFC_MTD
Randy Dunlap found that SFC_MTD was selected when sfc was built-in and
the MTD core was a module.  Don't allow that combination.

f41507245e sfc: Expose flash region storing boot code as MTD
The boot code that appears as a PCI expansion ROM on the SFC4000 is
stored in flash.  Expose this as a standard MTD device to allow for
in-place upgrades.
