[NET]: Fix and allocate less memory for ->priv'less netdevices
This patch effectively reverts commit d0498d9ae1a5cebac363e38907266d5cd2eedf89
aka "[NET]: Do not allocate unneeded memory for dev->priv alignment."
It was found to be buggy because of final unconditional += NETDEV_ALIGN_CONST
removal.
For example, for sizeof(struct net_device) being 2048 bytes, "alloc_size"
was also 2048 bytes, but allocator with debugging options turned on started
giving out !32-byte aligned memory resulting in redzones overwrites.
Patch does small optimization in ->priv'less case: bumping size to next
32-byte boundary was always done to ensure ->priv will also be aligned.
But, no ->priv, no need to do that.

dev_get_by_index() may return NULL if nothing is found. In

This patch revises the logging for link informations of spidernet.
- The link down message is too verbose because auto-negotiation timeout
occurs periodically while an ethernet cable is not connected.
- We want to see the link result, and we think it should be displayed.
In addition to the value of GHIINT0STS, spidernet interrupt handler
should check the values of GHIINT1STS/GHIINT2STS registers at the
beginning of spider_net_interrupt() so as not to drop error
interrupts.
GHIINT1STS/GHIINT2STS registers indicates some of erroneous conditions
in spidernet, and a few bits of GHIINT0STS register reflects these
conditions. But GHIINT0MSK masks these bits, so you should check these
conditions by reading GHIINT1STS/GHIINT2STS registers directly.
- unmask GDAINVAINT. There is an operation to do by spidernet
interrupt handler.
- mask some interrupts. There are no operations in the interrupt handler.
In error and warning printks, always report the netdevice name
instead of the port index (the latter has no meaning when there
are multiple mv643xx_eth silicon blocks in the system.)
mv643xx_eth: identify ports by struct mv643xx_private *
Instead of identifying individual mv643xx ethernet ports by only
their port number, identify them by their struct mv643xx_private *,
as just a port number has no meaning when there are multiple
mv643xx_eth silicon blocks in the system.
- Remove unused MV643XX_DEFAULT_[RT]X_QUEUE_SIZE definitions.
- Remove ETH_TARGET enum -- it isn't used anywhere in the driver,
and isn't even valid for non-mv643xx chip models, as those use
different MBUS target IDs.
- Clean up comment and control flow in mv643xx_eth_change_mtu().
- Use mp->dev instead of mp->mii.dev in mv643xx_eth_tx_timeout_task().
- Make mv643xx_eth_free_tx_descs() static.

1) It removes the statistics work. The request statistics command is
sent in ASYNC mode in this flow, the mutex is uneeded, so the request
statistics function can't go to sleep. No need for a workqueue anymore.
2) iwl4965_send_statistics_request has been renamed to
iwl_send_statistics_request and moved to iwl-core.c
3) A request for statistics is sent in alive_notify, the makes the uCode
sends statistics notification periodically starting from association.

b43: Add fastpath to b43_mac_suspend()
This adds a fastpath for the common workloads to the
MAC suspend flushing.
In common workloads the FIFO flush will take between 100 and
200 microseconds. So we want to avoid calling msleep() in the
common case, as it will waste over 800 microseconds + scheduler
overhead.
This fastpath will hit in workloads where only small chunks
of data are transmitted (downloading a file) or when a TX rate bigger
or equal to 24MBit/s is used when transmitting lots of stuff (iperf).
So in the commonly used workloads it will basically always hit.
In case the fastpath is not hit, there's no real performance or latency
disadvantage from that.
And yes, I measured this. So this is not one of these
bad Programmer Likeliness Assumptions that are always wrong. ;)

iwlwifi: perform bss_info_changed post association work right away
Do not use workqueue for bss_info_changed post association work.
When driver is notified of association the upper layer will be notified
right after that the association is complete. Doing the post association
work in a workqueue introduces a race condition where the upper layer may
want to make use of the association, but it is not yet complete.
