If the driver is built as a module, autoload won't work because the module
alias information is not filled. So user-space can't match the registered
device with the corresponding module.
Export the module alias information using the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() macro.

Since NAPI works by shutting down event interrupts when theres
work and turning them on when theres none, the net driver must
make sure that interrupts are disabled when it reschedules polling.
By calling napi_reschedule, the driver switches to polling mode,
therefor there should be no interrupt interference.
Any received packets will be handled in nps_enet_poll by polling the HW
indication of received packet until all packets are handled.

The tx interrupt is of edge type, and in case such interrupt is triggered
while it is masked it will not be handled even after tx interrupts are
re-enabled in the end of NAPI poll.
This will cause tx network to stop in the following scenario:
* Rx is being handled, hence interrupts are masked.
* Tx interrupt is triggered after checking if there is some tx to handle
and before re-enabling the interrupts.
In this situation only rx transaction will release tx requests.
In order to handle the tx that was missed( if there was one ),
a NAPI reschdule was added after enabling the interrupts.

Below is a description of a possible problematic
sequence. CPU-A is sending a frame and CPU-B handles
the interrupt that indicates the frame was sent. CPU-B
reads an invalid value of tx_packet_sent.
CPU-A CPU-B
----- -----
nps_enet_send_frame
.
.
tx_skb = skb
tx_packet_sent = true
order HW to start tx
.
.
HW complete tx
------> get tx complete interrupt
.
.
if(tx_packet_sent == true)
handle tx_skb
end memory transaction
(tx_packet_sent actually
written)
Furthermore there is a dependency between tx_skb and tx_packet_sent.
There is no assurance that tx_skb contains a valid pointer at CPU B
when it sees tx_packet_sent == true.
Solution:
Initialize tx_skb to NULL and use it to indicate that packet was sent,
in this way tx_packet_sent can be removed.
Add a write memory barrier after setting tx_skb in order to make sure
that it is valid before HW is informed and IRQ is fired.
Fixed sequence will be:
CPU-A CPU-B
----- -----
tx_skb = skb
wmb()
.
.
order HW to start tx
.
.
HW complete tx
------> get tx complete interrupt
.
.
if(tx_skb != NULL)
handle tx_skb
tx_skb = NULL

Since ezchip network driver is written with big endian EZChip platform it
is necessary to add support for little endian architecture.
The first issue is that the order of the bits in a bit field is
implementation specific. So all the bit fields are removed.
Named constants are used to access necessary fields.
And the second one is that network byte order is big endian.
For example, data on ethernet is transmitted with most-significant
octet (byte) first. So in case of little endian architecture
it is important to swap data byte order when we read it from
register. In case of unaligned access we can use "get_unaligned_be32"
and in other case we can use function "ioread32_rep" which reads all
data from register and works either with little endian or big endian
architecture.
And then when we are going to write data to register we need to restore
byte order using the function "put_unaligned_be32" in case of
unaligned access and in other case "iowrite32_rep".
The last little fix is a space between type and pointer to observe
coding style.

The nps_enet driver happily mixes virtual, physical and __iomem
addresses, which are all different depending on the architecture
and configuration. That causes a warning when building the code
on ARM with LPAE mode enabled:
drivers/net/ethernet/ezchip/nps_enet.c: In function 'nps_enet_send_frame':
drivers/net/ethernet/ezchip/nps_enet.c:370:13: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast]
but will also fail to work for other reasons.
In this patch, I'm trying to change the code to use only normal
kernel pointers, which I assume is what the author actually meant:
* For reading or writing a 32-bit word that may be unaligned when
an SKB contains unaligned data, I'm using get_unaligned/put_unaligned()
rather than memcpy_fromio/toio.
* For converting a u8 pointer to a u32 pointer, I use a cast rather
than the incorrect virt_to_phys.
* For copying a couple of bytes from one place to another while respecting
alignment, I use memcpy instead of memcpy_toio.

We need to set tx_skb pointer before send frame.
If we receive interrupt before we set pointer we will try
to free SKB with wrong pointer.
Now we are sure that SKB pointer will never be NULL during
