PS3: gelic: Add support for dual network interface
Add support for dual network (net_device) interface so that ethernet
and wireless can own separate ethX interfaces.
V2
- Fix the bug that bringing down and up the interface keeps rx
disabled.
- Make 'gelic_net_poll_controller()' extern , as David Woodhouse
pointed out at the previous submission.
- Fix weird usage of member names for the rx descriptor chain
V1
- Export functions which are convenient for both interfaces
- Move irq allocation/release code to driver probe/remove handlers
because interfaces share interrupts.
- Allocate skbs by using dev_alloc_skb() instead of netdev_alloc_skb()
as the interfaces share the hardware rx queue.
- Add gelic_port struct in order to abstract dual interface handling
- Change handlers for hardware queues so that they can handle dual
{source,destination} interfaces.
- Use new NAPI functions
This is a prerequisite for the new PS3 wireless support.
