This behavior has been confirmed by Marvell with a SATA analyzer.
The Marvell port-multiplier apparently likes to see clean HOB
information when accessing PMP registers.
Since sata_mv uses PIO shadow register access, this doesn't happen
automatically, as it might in a more purely FIS-based driver (eg. ahci).
One way to fix this is to flag these commands with ATA_TFLAG_LBA48,
forcing libata to write out the HOB fields with known (zero) values.

That's nice, but most SATA devices which need it will tell us about it
in their IDENTIFY PACKET response, as bit-15 of word-62 of the

So for those which specify it, we should automatically use the DMADIR bit.
Otherwise, disc writing will fail by default on many SATA-ATAPI drives.

ixgb: add RNBC counter - no buffer count - to ethtool stats
This counter is valuable to determine if the system is unable
to timely return buffers to the hardware and this counter starts
to increase well before the hardware starts to drop packets. If
users experience rx_no_buffer_count increasing, they should increase
the amount of descriptors. That will provide more buffers for the
hardware and will decrease the chance of hard drops.

Fix problems in LED management, so ethtool -p works correctly on Yukon-EC
and other chips. The driver was incorrectly setting the PHY LED overide bits.
Moral: read the spec sheet, not the vendor driver.

igb: Fix panic with NICs with 1000BASE-SX PHY
This patch eliminates a kernel panic with the igb driver in 2.6.25-rc2 when
running on a Intel 82575 Ethernet controller with a 1000BASE-SX PHY. The
panic does not happen with the 1000BASE-T PHY, only with a SX connection.
