772d05c51c e1000e: slow performance between two 82579 connected via 10Mbit hub
Two 82579 LOMs connected via a 10Mb hub experience extraordinarily low
performance.  This is because 82579 is excessively aggressive on transmit
at 10Mb half-duplex and will not provide sufficient time for the link
partner to transmit.  When the link partner is also 82579, the result is a
lot of collisions (and corresponding re-transmits) that cause the poor
performance. To work-around this issue, significantly increase the IPG in
the MAC to allow enough gap for the link partner to transmit and reduce the
Rx latency in the analog PHY to 0 to reduce the number of collisions.

bb034512da e1000e: additional error handling on PHY register accesses
PHY reads/writes via the MDIC register could potentially return results
from a previous PHY register access.  If that happens, the offset in the
returned results will be that of the previous access and if that is
different from the expected offset, log a debug message and error out.

1b41db37f4 e1000e: cosmetic move of #defines and prototypes to the new ich8lan.h
Move #defines and function prototypes specific to the ICH/PCH family of
devices (ICH8/82562, ICH8/82566, ICH8/82567, ICH9/82562, ICH9/82566,
ICH9/82567, ICH10/82567, 82577, 82578, 82579, I217, I218) to the new
ich8lan.h header file (the convention for Intel wired ethernet drivers is
to use the name of the first device in the family for related file and
function names).  These defines and function prototypes can be used by
other files in the driver and moving them to the ICH/PCH-family-specific
file makes it clearer to which devices they are applicable.

c2ade1a41d e1000e: use generic IEEE MII definitions
For standard IEEE MII-compatible transceivers, the kernel has generic
register and bit definitions.  Use those instead of redundant local
defines.

Do not replace references of MII_CR_SPEED_10 with BMCR_SPEED10 (0x0000)
when it is not necessary (i.e. when it is bitwise OR'ed with another
value).

Some whitespace issues in the surrounding context of the above changes are
also cleaned up.

3e35d9918c e1000e: adjust PM QoS request
It has been found that devices other than 82579 (a.k.a. e1000_pch2lan)
suffer from dropped transactions on platforms with deep C-states when
jumbo frames are enabled.  For example, LOMs on ICH9- and ICH10-based
platforms which recently had early-receive de-featured (for stability
reasons) suffer from this.  To resolve this for all devices, when jumbo
frames are enabled set the PM QoS DMA latency request based on the size
of the receive packet buffer less one full frame.

94fb848bf4 e1000e: enable ECC on I217/I218 to catch packet buffer memory errors
In rare instances, memory errors have been detected in the internal packet
buffer memory on I217/I218 when stressed under certain environmental
conditions.  Enable Error Correcting Code (ECC) in hardware to catch both
correctable and uncorrectable errors.  Correctable errors will be handled
by the hardware.  Uncorrectable errors in the packet buffer will cause the
packet to be received with an error indication in the buffer descriptor
causing the packet to be discarded.  If the uncorrectable error is in the
descriptor itself, the hardware will stop and interrupt the driver
indicating the error.  The driver will then reset the hardware in order to
clear the error and restart.

Both types of errors will be accounted for in statistics counters.

2e1706f234 e1000e: remove use of IP payload checksum
Currently only used when packet split mode is enabled with jumbo frames,
IP payload checksum (for fragmented UDP packets) is mutually exclusive with
receive hashing offload since the hardware uses the same space in the
receive descriptor for the hardware-provided packet checksum and the RSS
hash, respectively.  Users currently must disable jumbos when receive
hashing offload is enabled, or vice versa, because of this incompatibility.
Since testing has shown that IP payload checksum does not provide any real
benefit, just remove it so that there is no longer a choice between jumbos
or receive hashing offload but not both as done in other Intel GbE drivers
(e.g. e1000, igb).

Also, add a missing check for IP checksum error reported by the hardware;
let the stack verify the checksum when this happens.

70495a500d e1000e: add Receive Packet Steering (RPS) support
Enable RPS by default.  Disallow jumbo frames when both receive checksum
and receive hashing are enabled because the hardware cannot do both IP
payload checksum (enabled when receive checksum is enabled when using
packet split which is used for jumbo frames) and provide RSS hash at the
same time.

v2: added ethtool command to query flow hashing behavior per Ben Hutchings
    and changed the type of rsskey to cleanup the setting of the register
    array and avoid unnecessary casts (as pointed out by Joe Perches).
    The long error messages are not changed since there is nothing in
    the kernel ./Documentation that suggests the preferred method for
    dealing with long messages other than to never break strings; leaving
    them as-is for now.
