When testing the myri10ge driver with 2.6.24-rc1, I found
that the machine crashed under heavy load:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000000100108 RIP:
[<ffffffff803cc8dd>] net_rx_action+0x11b/0x184
The address corresponds to the list_move_tail() in
netif_rx_complete():
if (unlikely(work == weight))
list_move_tail(&n->poll_list, list);
Eventually, I traced the crashes to calling netif_rx_complete() with
work_done == budget. From looking at other drivers, it appears that
one should only call netif_rx_complete() when work_done < budget.
To fix it, I changed the test in myri10ge_poll() so that it refers
to to work_done rather than looking at the rx ring status. If
work_done is < budget, then that implies we have no more packets to
process. Any races will be resolved by the NIC when the write to
irq_claim is made.
In myri10ge_clean_rx_done(), if we ever exceeded our budget, it would
report a work_done one larger than was acutally done. This is because
the increment was done in the conditional, so work_done would be
incremented regardless of whether or not the test passed or failed.
This would lead to the WARN_ON_ONCE(work > weight); warning in
net_rx_action triggering. I've moved the increment of work_done
inside the loop. Note that this would only be a problem when we had
exceeded our budget.

When not building an arch/powerpc kernel, the mpc5200 FEC driver depends
on some symbols which are not defined (BESTCOMM & BESTCOMM_FEC).
This patch flips around the dependancy logic so that it cannot be
selected unless BESTCOMM_FEC is selected first. Kconfig stops
complaining this way.
Also, the driver only works for arch/powerpc (not arch/ppc) anyway so
it should depend on PPC_MERGE also.

Besides, fix the checkpatch.pl warnings about using the

Upon inspection the rx FIFO size calculation code was found to have
2 significant flaws: A superfluous minus sign resulting in the
wrong size to be used for jumbo frames on 82573 and ich9, as well
as that this code rewrote the read-only adapter->pba variable
resulting in different values at each run.
Without this patch jumbo's will work but performance will be
awkward since the TX size is not adequate for two whole frames.

Fix allocation and freeing of jumbo frames where several bugs
were recently introduced by cleanups after we forked this code
from e1000. This moves ps_pages to buffer_info where it really
belongs and makes it a dynamically allocated array. The penalty
is not that high since it's allocated outside of the buffer_info
struct anyway.
Without this patch all jumbo frames are completely broken and the
driver panics.

It is not safe to to place struct pernet_operations in a special section.
We need struct pernet_operations to last until we call unregister_pernet_subsys.
Which doesn't happen until module unload.
So marking struct pernet_operations is a disaster for modules in two ways.
- We discard it before we call the exit method it points to.
- Because I keep struct pernet_operations on a linked list discarding
it for compiled in code removes elements in the middle of a linked
list and does horrible things for linked insert.
So this looks safe assuming __exit_refok is not discarded
for modules.
