The ksz884x driver does receive processing in a custom tasklet, and
seems to be assuming that since it takes its private interface spinlock
with spin_lock_irq(), it won't be running concurrently with its own
interrupt handler, as it cannot be preempted by it, but since its
interrupt handler doesn't do any locking whatsoever, the receive
processing tasklet and interrupt handler can end up running concurrently
on different CPUs.
As a result of this, the ksz884x receive path ends up locking up fairly
easily, when the receive processing tasklet's reenabling of receive
interrupts (due to it being done with polling the receive ring) races
with the interrupt handler's disabling of receive interrupts (due to a
new receive interrupt coming in) resulting in the receive interrupt
being masked but the receive processing tasklet not being scheduled.
Fix this by making the ksz884x interrupt handler take its private
interface spinlock. This requires upgrading the spin_lock() in the
transmit cleanup tasklet to a spin_lock_irq(), as otherwise the IRQ
handler can preempt transmit cleanup and deadlock the system, but
with those two changes, no more receive lockups have been observed.

The __dev* removal patches for the network drivers ended up messing up
the function prototypes for a bunch of drivers. This patch fixes all of
them back up to be properly aligned.
Bonus is that this almost removes 100 lines of code, always a nice
surprise.

In commit 175c0dff, drivers uses tasklet_kill to avoid put disabled tasklet
on the tasklet vec. But some of the drivers uses tasklet_init & tasklet_disable
in the driver init code, then tasklet_enable when it is opened. This makes
tasklet_enable on a killed tasklet and make ksoftirqd crazy then. Normally,
drivers should use tasklet_init/tasklet_kill on device open/remove, and use
tasklet_disable/tasklet_enable on device suspend/resume.

Some driver uses tasklet_disable in device remove/close process,
tasklet_disable will inc tasklet->count and return. If the tasklet
is not handled yet because some softirq pressure, the tasklet will
placed on the tasklet_vec, never have a chance to excute. This might
lead to ksoftirqd heavy loaded, wakeup with pending_softirq, but
tasklet is disabled. tasklet_kill should be used in this case.

MAX_ADDR_LEN is 32. ETH_ALEN is 6. mac->sa_data is a 14 byte array, so
the memcpy() is doing a read past the end of the array. I asked about
this on netdev and Ben Hutchings told me it's supposed to be copying
ETH_ALEN bytes (thanks Ben).
