Prefer the direct use of octal for permissions.
Done with checkpatch -f --types=SYMBOLIC_PERMS --fix-inplace
and some typing.
Miscellanea:
o Whitespace neatening around these conversions.

The lib8390 module parameter 'msg_enable' doesn't do anything useful:
it causes an ancient version string to be logged.
Remove redundant code that logs the same string.
In ne.c and wd.c, the value of ei_local->msg_enable is used before
being assigned. Use ne_msg_enable and wd_msg_enable, respectively.
Most of the other 8390 drivers never assign ei_local->msg_enable.
Use the 'msg_enable' module parameter from lib8390 as the default
value.
Eliminate the pointless static and local variables.
Clean up an indentation mistake.
All of these issues originated from the same patch.

When the kernel is running in secure boot mode, we lock down the kernel to
prevent userspace from modifying the running kernel image. Whilst this
includes prohibiting access to things like /dev/mem, it must also prevent
access by means of configuring driver modules in such a way as to cause a
device to access or modify the kernel image.
To this end, annotate module_param* statements that refer to hardware
configuration and indicate for future reference what type of parameter they
specify. The parameter parser in the core sees this information and can
skip such parameters with an error message if the kernel is locked down.
The module initialisation then runs as normal, but just sees whatever the
default values for those parameters is.
Note that we do still need to do the module initialisation because some
drivers have viable defaults set in case parameters aren't specified and
some drivers support automatic configuration (e.g. PNP or PCI) in addition
to manually coded parameters.
This patch annotates drivers in drivers/net/ethernet/.

With centralized MTU checking, there's nothing productive done by
eth_change_mtu that isn't already done in dev_set_mtu, so mark it as
deprecated and remove all usage of it in the kernel. All callers have been
audited for calls to alloc_etherdev* or ether_setup directly, which means
they all have a valid dev->min_mtu and dev->max_mtu. Now eth_change_mtu
prints out a netdev_warn about being deprecated, for the benefit of
out-of-tree drivers that might be utilizing it.
Of note, dvb_net.c actually had dev->mtu = 4096, while using
eth_change_mtu, meaning that if you ever tried changing it's mtu, you
couldn't set it above 1500 anymore. It's now getting dev->max_mtu also set
to 4096 to remedy that.
v2: fix up lantiq_etop, missed breakage due to drive not compiling on x86

Removed the shared ei_debug variable. Replaced it by adding u32 msg_enable to
the private struct ei_device. Now each 8390 ethernet instance has a per-device
logging variable.
Changed older style printk() calls to more canonical forms.
Tested on: ne, ne2k-pci, smc-ultra, and wd hardware.
V4.0
- Substituted pr_info() and pr_debug() for printk() KERN_INFO and KERN_DEBUG
V3.0
- Checked for cases where pr_cont() was most appropriate choice.
- Changed module parameter from 'debug' to 'msg_enable' because debug was
no longer the best description.
V2.0
- Changed netif_msg_(drv|probe|ifdown|rx_err|tx_err|tx_queued|intr|rx_status|hw)
to netif_(dbg|info|warn|err) where possible.

Remove all #inclusions of asm/system.h preparatory to splitting and killing
it. Performed with the following command:
perl -p -i -e 's!^#\s*include\s*<asm/system[.]h>.*\n!!' `grep -Irl '^#\s*include\s*<asm/system[.]h>' *`

Moves the drivers for the National Semi-conductor 8390 chipset into
drivers/net/ethernet/8390/ and the necessary Kconfig and Makefile
changes.
