This patch fixes graceful stop timeout handling in PPC4xx EMAC driver.
Currently, when we stop TX/RX channels we just do some number of loops
without relying on actual spent time. This has finally bitten me on
one of our systems (heavy network traffic during start up, RX channel
is stopped several times to configure multicast list).
Graceful channel stop can take up to 1 frame time, so I've added
device specific timeout counter which depends on current link speed
and calls to udelay() to really wait required amount of time before
giving up.

Remove code from sk98lin that does it's own checksum validation.
This code is incorrect when dealing with nested protocols like
VLAN's, and it is better to use regular receive code path to
handle hardware checksum.

This is what a lot of drivers will actually want to use to insert
individual pages into a user VMA. It doesn't have the old PageReserved
restrictions of remap_pfn_range(), and it doesn't complain about partial
remappings.
The page you insert needs to be a nice clean kernel allocation, so you
can't insert arbitrary page mappings with this, but that's not what
people want.
