The packet buffer is allocated at 4 bytes boundary, but the IP header
length and version bits is located at byte 14. These bit fields access
as 32 bits word and caused exception on processors that do not support
unaligned access.
The patch adds 2 bytes offset to make the bit fields word aligned.

The pointer address in buffer descriptors is physical address. The
pointer that processor used to access packet is virtual address.
Though the higher bits of pointer address used by the MAC may be
truncated to zero in special case, it is not always true in larger
designs.

It should be max() instead of min(). Use 1/4 of available
descriptors for tx, and there should be at least 2 tx
descriptors.

The generic packet receive code takes care of setting
netdev->last_rx when necessary, for the sake of the
bonding ARP monitor.

In a couple of cases collapse some extra code like:
int retval = NETDEV_TX_OK;
...
return retval;
into
return NETDEV_TX_OK;

res has already been tested. It seems that this test should be on the

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as

Fix up drivers that return an errno value to qdisc_restart(), causing
qdisc_restart() to print a warning and requeue/retransmit the skb.
- xpnet: memory allocation error, intention is to drop
- ethoc: oversized packet, packet must be dropped
- ibmlana: skb freed: use after free
- rrunner: skb freed: use after free

This patch adds a platform device driver that supports the OpenCores 10/100
Mbps Ethernet MAC.
The driver expects three resources: one IORESOURCE_MEM resource defines the
memory region for the core's memory-mapped registers while a second
IORESOURCE_MEM resource defines the network packet buffer space. The third
resource, of type IORESOURCE_IRQ, associates an interrupt with the driver.
