Vineet Gupta 27082ee1b9 ethernet/arc/arc_emac: Fix huge delays in large file copies
copying large files to a NFS mounted host was taking absurdly large
time.

Turns out that TX BD reclaim had a sublte bug.

Loop starts off from @txbd_dirty cursor and stops when it hits a BD
still in use by controller. However when it stops it needs to keep the
cursor at that very BD to resume scanning in next iteration. However it
was erroneously incrementing the cursor, causing the next scan(s) to
fail too, unless the BD chain was completely drained out.

Alexey Brodkin 9cff866e37 ethernet/arc/arc_emac - fix NAPI "work > weight" warning
Initially I improperly set a boundary for maximum number of input
packets to process on NAPI poll ("work") so it might be more than
expected amount ("weight").

This was really harmless but seeing WARN_ON_ONCE on every device boot is
not nice. So trivial fix ("<" instead of "<=") is here.

Alexey Brodkin a4a1139b24 arc_emac: fix compile-time errors & warnings on PPC64
As reported by "kbuild test robot" there were some errors and warnings
on attempt to build kernel with "make ARCH=powerpc allmodconfig".

And this patch addresses both errors and warnings.
Below is a list of introduced changes:
1. Fix compile-time errors (misspellings in "dma_unmap_single") on PPC.
2. Use DMA address instead of "skb->data" as a pointer to data buffer.
This fixed warnings on pointer to int conversion on 64-bit systems.
3. Re-implemented initial allocation of Rx buffers in "arc_emac_open" in
the same way they're re-allocated during operation (receiving packets).
So once again DMA address could be used instead of "skb->data".
4. Explicitly use EMAC_BUFFER_SIZE for Rx buffers allocation.
