- Enable msi-x link interrupts because the timer based scheduler was getting
cancelled causing the link state to be lost with repetitive card up/downs
when changing the mtu.
- Unmask mac_rmac_link interrupts only for Xframe I and prevent a spurious
link interrupt in Xframe II.
- Stop the tx queue and indicate link down when card is down
Updates of the RBRDU have two different meanings depending on their
context:
1. the receiving process has not started - the value which is written
into the RBRDU register is supposed to be the free rx descriptors
count (rounded to a multiple of 4)
2. the receiving process is running - the value increments the count
above (sic)
The update is currently issued deep inside the rx replenish chain (see
velocity_give_many_rx_descs).
Let's propagate enough information to the caller so that the rx
replenish functions do not depend on hardware any more.
It is needed to perform the Rx/Tx buffers housekeeping when MTU changes.

Executive summary: the bounce buffers are in my way
- they use something like a 64 * 1500 bytes area of PCI
consistent area
- they are not resized when the MTU changes
- they are used
- to hand-pad undersized packets. skb_pad anyone ?
- to linearize fragmented skbs whose fragment count
goes beyond the 7 fragments hardware limit in order
to claim scatter-gather support
Actually the SG code is commented out and I wonder if it
could not be implemented (ab-)using the large send feature
of the chipset since the latter should support some
multi-descriptor packet transmitting.

tun: Persistent devices can get stuck in xoff state
The scenario goes like this. App stops reading from tun/tap.
TX queue gets full and driver does netif_stop_queue().
App closes fd and TX queue gets flushed as part of the cleanup.
Next time the app opens tun/tap and starts reading from it but
the xoff state is not cleared. We're stuck.
Normally xoff state is cleared when netdev is brought up. But
in the case of persistent devices this happens only during
initial setup.
The fix is trivial. If device is already up when an app opens
it we clear xoff state and that gets things moving again.

rfkill: ignore errors from rfkill_toggle_radio in rfkill_add_switch
rfkill_add_switch() calls rfkill_toggle_radio() to set the state of a
recently registered rfkill class to the current global state [for that
rfkill->type].
The rfkill_toggle_radio() call is going to error out if the hardware is
RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED, and the global state is RFKILL_STATE_UNBLOCKED.
That is a quite normal situation which I missed to account for. As things
stand, the error return from rfkill_toggle_radio ends up causing
rfkill_register to bail out with an error (de-registering the new switch in
the process), which is Not Nice.
Change rfkill_add_switch() to not return errors because of a failed call to
rfkill_toggle_radio(). We can go back to returning errors again (if that's
indeed the right thing to do) if we define the exact error codes the
rfkill->toggle_radio callbacks are to return in each situation, so that we
can ignore the right ones only.
