stmmac: reorganize chain/ring modes removing Koptions

Previously we had two Koptions to decide if the stmmac
had to use either a ring or a chain to manage its descriptors.
This patch removes the Kernel configuration options and it allow us
to use the chain mode by passing a module option.
Ring mode continues to be the default.

Also with this patch, it will be easier to validate the driver built and
guarantee that all the two modes always compile fine.

stmmac: add Rx watchdog support to mitigate the DMA irqs

GMAC devices newer than databook 3.40 has an embedded timer
that can be used for mitigating the number of interrupts.
So this patch adds this optimizations.

At any rate, the Rx watchdog can be disable (on bugged HW) by
passing from the platform the riwt_off field.

In this implementation the rx timer stored in the Reg9 is fixed
to the max value. This will be tuned by using ethtool.

V2: added a platform parameter to force to disable the rx-watchdog
for example on new core where it is bugged.

V3: do not disable NAPI when Rx watchdog is used.

V4: a new extra statistic field has been added to show the early
receive status in the interrupt handler.
This patch also adds an extra check to avoid to call
napi_schedule when the DMA_INTR_ENA_RIE bit is disabled in the
Interrupt Mask register.

stmmac: add the initial tx coalesce schema

This patch adds a new schema used for mitigating the
number of transmit interrupts.
It is based on a SW timer and a threshold value.
The timer is used to periodically call the stmmac_tx_clean
function; the threshold is used for setting the IC (Interrupt
on Completion bit). The ISR will then invoke the poll method.
Also the patch improves some ethtool stat fields.

V2: review the logic to manage the IC bit in the TDESC
that was bugged because it didn't take care about the
fragments. Also fix the tx_count_frames that has not to be
limited to TX DMA ring. Thanks to Ben Hutchings.

V3: removed the spin_lock irqsave/restore as D. Miller suggested.

net: remove skb recycling

Over time, skb recycling infrastructure got litle interest and
many bugs. Generic rx path skb allocation is now using page
fragments for efficient GRO / TCP coalescing, and recyling
a tx skb for rx path is not worth the pain.

Last identified bug is that fat skbs can be recycled
and it can endup using high order pages after few iterations.

With help from Maxime Bizon, who pointed out that commit
87151b8689d (net: allow pskb_expand_head() to get maximum tailroom)
introduced this regression for recycled skbs.

Instead of fixing this bug, lets remove skb recycling.

Drivers wanting really hot skbs should use build_skb() anyway,
to allocate/populate sk_buff right before netif_receive_skb()

stmmac: add the Energy Efficient Ethernet support

This patch adds the Energy Efficient Ethernet support to the stmmac.

Please see the driver's documentation for further details about this support
in the driver.

Thanks also goes to Rayagond Kokatanur for his first implementation.

Note:
to clearly manage and expose the lpi interrupt status and eee ethtool
stats I've had to do some modifications to the driver's design and I
found really useful to move other parts of the code (e.g. mmc irq stat)
in the main directly. So this means that some core has been reworked
to introduce the EEE.

v1: initial patch
v2: fixed some sparse issues (typos)
v3: erroneously sent the v2 renamed as v3
v4:
o Fixed the return value of the stmmac_eee_init as suggested by D.Miller
o Totally reviewed the ethtool support for EEE
o Added a new internal parameter to tune the SW timer for TX LPI.
v5: do not change any eee setting in case of the stmmac_ethtool_op_set_eee fails
(it has to return -EOPNOTSUPP in that case).

On old devices many information have to be passed through the
platform, for example: enhanced descriptor structure,

This remains still valid because the driver has to support old
Synopsys devices but now it's also able to override them using the

stmmac: add CHAINED descriptor mode support (V4)

This patch enhances the STMMAC driver to support CHAINED mode of
descriptor.

STMMAC supports DMA descriptor to operate both in dual buffer(RING)
and linked-list(CHAINED) mode. In RING mode (default) each descriptor
points to two data buffer pointers whereas in CHAINED mode they point
to only one data buffer pointer.

In CHAINED mode each descriptor will have pointer to next descriptor in
the list, hence creating the explicit chaining in the descriptor itself,
whereas such explicit chaining is not possible in RING mode.

First version of this work has been done by Rayagond.
Then the patch has been reworked avoiding ifdef inside the C code.
A new header file has been added to define all the functions needed for
managing enhanced and normal descriptors.
In fact, these have to be specialized according to the ring/chain usage.
Two new C files have been also added to implement the helper routines
needed to manage: jumbo frames, chain and ring setup (i.e. desc3).
