Fix a race condition in the transmit code, where the dma interrupt could update
the free tx buffer count concurrently and wedge the tx queue.
Fix the misuse of the rx frame status and rx frame length registers: no more
"fifo overrun" errors caused by the OFLOW bit being tested in the frame length
register (instead of the status register), and no more missed packets due to
incorrect length taken from status register (instead of the frame length
register).
Fix a panic (skb_over_panic BUG) caused by allocating and then copying an
incoming packet while the packet length register was changing.
Cut-and-paste the reset code from the powermac mace driver (mace.c), so the NIC
functions when MacOS does not initialise it (important for anyone wanting to
use the Emile boot loader).
Cut-and-paste the error counting and timeout recovery code from mace.c.
Fix over allocation of rx buffer memory (it's page order, not page count).
Converted to driver model.
Converted to DMA API.
Since I've run out of ways to make it fail, and since it performs well now,
promote the driver from EXPERIMENTAL status. Tested on both quadra 840av and
660av.

The SKMC driver has:
- already been marked as BROKEN in 2.6.0 three years ago and
- is still marked as BROKEN.
Drivers that had been marked as BROKEN for such a long time seem to be
unlikely to be revived in the forseeable future.
But if anyone wants to ever revive this driver, the code is still
present in the older kernel releases.

The previous hp100 changeset attempted to kill warnings, but was only
tested on !CONFIG_ISA platforms. The correct conditional compilation
setup involves tested CONFIG_ISA rather than just MODULE.
Fixes link on CONFIG_ISA platforms (i386) in current -git.

The purpose of this patch:
- Adopt the DMA API (jazzsonic, macsonic & core driver).
- Adopt the driver model (macsonic).
This part was cribbed from jazzsonic. As a consequence, macsonic once
again works as a module. Driver model is also used by the DMA calls.
- Support 16 bit cards (macsonic & core driver, also affects jazzsonic)
This code was adapted from the mac68k linux 2.2 kernel, where it has
languished for a long time.
- Support more 32-bit mac cards (macsonic)
Also from mac68k repo.
- Zero-copy buffer handling (core driver)
Provides a nice performance improvement. The new algorithm incidentally
helped to replace the old Jazz DMA code.
The patch was tested on a variety of macs (several 32-bit quadra built-in
NICs, a 16-bit LC PDS NIC and a 16-bit comm-slot NIC), and also on MIPS
Jazz.

This patch makes tms380tr use the new DMA API. Now that on Alpha, this API
also supports bus master DMA for ISA (platform) devices, i changed the
driver to use this new API.
This also works around a bug in the firmware loader: The example provided
in Documentation/firmware_class no longer works, as the firmware loader now
calls get_kobj_path_length() and the kernel promptly oopses, as the
home-grown device doesn't have a parent. Of course, this doesn't happen
with a "real" device which has its bus (or pseudo bus in the case of
platform) as parent.
Converted tms380tr to use new DMA API:
- proteon.c, skisa.c: use platform pseudo bus to create a struct device
- Space.c: delete init hooks
- abyss.c, tmspci.c: pass struct device to tms380tr.c
- tms380tr.c, tms380tr.h: new DMA API, use real device fo firmware loader

The options FMV18X and SK_G16 do depend on the non-available
CONFIG_OBSOLETE even in kernel 2.4 - IOW, the last time it was able to
select them was in kernel 2.2 (or even before).
Since it seems noone misses these drivers, this patch removes them.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
