Newer on-chip MAC peripherals support IEEE 1588 PTP in the hardware, so
extend the driver to support this functionality.

All distributions enable it, therefore no significant body of users
are even testing the driver with it disabled.  And making NAPI
configurable is heavily discouraged anyways.

I left the MSI-X interrupt enabling thing in an "#if 0" block
so hopefully someone can debug that and it can get re-enabled.
Probably it was just one of the NVIDIA chipset MSI erratas that
we work handle these days in the PCI quirks (see drivers/pci/quirks.c
and stuff like nvenet_msi_disable()).

<content type='text'>
This patch adds support for using the LL TEMAC Ethernet driver on
non-Virtex 5 platforms by adding support for accessing the Soft DMA
registers as if they were memory mapped instead of solely through the
DCR's (available on the Virtex 5).

The patch also updates the driver so that it runs on the MicroBlaze.
The changes were tested on the PowerPC 440, PowerPC 405, and the
MicroBlaze platforms.

<title>l2tp: Split pppol2tp patch into separate l2tp and ppp parts</title>

<id>fd558d186df2c13a22455373858bae634a4795af</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch splits the pppol2tp driver into separate L2TP and PPP parts
to prepare for L2TPv3 support. In L2TPv3, protocols other than PPP can
be carried, so this split creates a common L2TP core that will handle
the common L2TP bits which protocol support modules such as PPP will
use.

Note that the existing pppol2tp module is split into l2tp_core and
l2tp_ppp by this change.

There are no feature changes here. Internally, however, there are
significant changes, mostly to handle the separation of PPP-specific
data from the L2TP session and to provide hooks in the core for
modules like PPP to access.
