2011-09-27	ehea: Remove sleep at .ndo_get_stats	brenohl@br.ibm.com	2	-23/+37
	Currently ehea ndo_get_stats can sleep in two places, in a hcall and in a GFP_KERNEL alloc, which is not correct. This patch creates a delayed workqueue that grabs the information each 1 sec from the hardware, and place it into the device structure, so that, .ndo_get_stats quickly returns the device structure statistics block.

2011-08-27	drivers/net/ethernet/*: Enabled vendor Kconfig options	Jeff Kirsher	1	-0/+1
	Based on finds for Stephen Rothwell, where current defconfig's enable a ethernet driver and it is not compiled due to the newly added NET_VENDOR_* component of Kconfig. This patch enables all the "new" Kconfig options so that current defconfig's will continue to compile the expected drivers. In addition, by enabling all the new Kconfig options does not add any un-expected options. CC: Stephen Rothwll <sfc@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>
2011-08-18	net: fix IBM EMAC driver after rename.	Tony Breeds	9	-32/+32
	In commit 9aa3283595451ca093500ff0977b106e1f465586 (ehea/ibm: Move the IBM drivers) the IBM_NEW_EMAC were renames to IBM_EMAC* The conversion was incomplete so that even if the driver was added to the .config it wasn't built, but there were no errors). In this commit we also update the various defconfigs that use EMAC to use the new Kconfig symbol, and explicitly add the NET_VENDOR_IBM guard. We do not explicitly select the Kconfig dependencies, as this would force EMAC on. Doing it in the defconfig allows more flexibility. Tested on a canyondlands board.

	Move the IBM drivers into drivers/net/ethernet/ibm/ and make the necessary Kconfig and Makefile changes. - Renamed ibm_new_emac to emac - Cleaned up Makefile and Kconfig options which referred to IBM_NEW_EMAC to IBM_EMAC - ibmlana driver is a National Semiconductor SONIC driver so it was not moved CC: Christoph Raisch <raisch@de.ibm.com> CC: Santiago Leon <santil@linux.vnet.ibm.com> CC: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> CC: David Gibson <dwg@au1.ibm.com> CC: Kyle Lucke <klucke@us.ibm.com> CC: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>
