We were using the same variable for iterating two nested loops.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux into mips-for-linux-next
Conflicts:
include/linux/ssb/ssb_driver_gige.h
Also resolves a logical merge conflict in drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/-
bgmac.c due to change of an API.

Without this patch I get many unaligned access warnings per packet,
this patches fixes them all. This should improve performance on some
systems like mips.

The specs prescribe an immediate read of the interrupt mask after
disabling interrupts. This patch updates the driver to match the
specs.

Some callers may want to know if PHY write succeed. Also make PHY
functions static, they are not exported anywhere.

The last (bool) parameter in bgmac_cmdcfg_maskset says if the write
should be made, even if value didn't change. Currently driver doesn't
match the specs about (not) forcing some changes. This makes it follow
them.

This adds check for a valid Ethernet MAC address and in case it is not,
it will generate a valid random one, such that the adapter is still
usable.

When changing the device from or to promisc mode this only affects the
device after the device is bought up the next time. For bridging it is
needed to change the device to promisc mode while it is up, which is
possible with this patch.

The generic implementation just changes the netdev struct and does not
write the new mac address to the hardware or issues some command to do
so.

BCMA is a Broadcom specific bus with devices AKA cores. All recent BCMA
based SoCs have gigabit ethernet provided by the GBit MAC core. This
patch adds driver for such a cores registering itself as a netdev. It
has been tested on a BCM4706 and BCM4718 chipsets.
In the kernel tree there is already b44 driver which has some common
things with bgmac, however there are many differences that has led to
the decision or writing a new driver:
1) GBit MAC cores appear on BCMA bus (not SSB as in case of b44)
2) There is 64bit DMA engine which differs from 32bit one
3) There is no CAM (Content Addressable Memory) in GBit MAC
4) We have 4 TX queues on GBit MAC devices (instead of 1)
5) Many registers have different addresses/values
6) RX header flags are also different
The driver in it's state is functional how, however there is of course
place for improvements:
1) Supporting more net_device_ops
2) SUpporting more ethtool_ops
3) Unaligned addressing in DMA
4) Writing separated PHY driver
