If the Tx engine is told to stop while it is actively processing Tx
descriptors it is possible that the Tx descriptor(s) will not be closed
out properly. When the Tx engine is restarted this could result in the
driver being stuck on the improperly closed descriptor.
Update the driver to wait for the Tx engine to be in a stopped or
suspended state before issuing the stop command.
This has not been an issue to date, but it's a good safe-guard to have.

This patch provides support for receive side scaling (RSS). RSS allows
for spreading incoming network packets across the Rx queues. When used
in conjunction with the per DMA channel interrupt support, this allows
the receive processing to be spread across multiple processors.

Provide support for splitting IP packets so that the header and
payload can be sent to different DMA addresses. This will allow
the IP header to be put into the linear part of the skb while the
payload can be added as frags.

This patch provides some general performance enhancements for the
driver:
- Modify the default coalescing settings (reduce usec, increase frames)
- Change the AXI burst length to 256 bytes (default was 16 bytes which
was smaller than a cache line)
- Change the AXI cache settings to write-back/write-allocate which
allocate cache entries for received packets during the DMA since the
packet will be processed soon afterwards
- Combine ioread/iowrite when disabling both the Tx and Rx interrupts
- Change to processing the Tx/Rx channels in pairs
- Only recycle the Rx descriptors when a threshold of dirty descriptors
is reached

Currently the driver makes use of the additional mac address
registers in the hardware to provide perfect filtering. The
hardware can also have a set of hash table registers that can
be used for imperfect filtering. By using imperfect filtering
the additional mac address registers can be used for layer 2
filtering support. Use the hash table registers if the device
has them.

This patch adds support for (imperfect) filtering of
VLAN tag ids using a 16-bit filter hash table. When
VLANs are added, a 4-bit hash is calculated with the
result indicating the bit in the hash table to set.
This table is used by the hardware to drop packets with
a VLAN id that does not hash to a set bit in the table.

The MAC_VLAN_Incl register (0x0060) must be set to indicate
that the VLAN tag to be inserted comes from a Tx context
descriptor and not the MAC_VLAN_Incl register. Also, even
though it is the default, explicitly set the type of tag to
be inserted as a CTAG.
