dev_ioctl() already checks capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) before calling the
driver's implementation of MDIO ioctls.

Some drivers incorrectly use ntohs() instead of htons()

A cleanup as htons() returns same result than ntohs(),
but better to use the proper one.

Second round of drivers for Gb cards (and NIU one I forgot in the 10GB round)

Now that core network takes care of trans_start updates, dont do it
in drivers themselves, if possible. Drivers can avoid one cache miss
(on dev-&gt;trans_start) in their start_xmit() handler.

Exceptions are NETIF_F_LLTX drivers

<title>atlx: move modinfo data from atlx.h to atl1.c</title>

Both atl1.c and atl2.c include atlx.h, which defines some modinfo
stuff. But atl2.c seems like it doesn't want the modinfo data
from atlx.h, as it defines its own.

Running modinfo on atl2.ko, we get conflicting information:

$ /sbin/modinfo drivers/net/atlx/atl2.ko | egrep "version|description|author"
version:        2.2.3
description:    Atheros Fast Ethernet Network Driver

author:         Xiong Huang &lt;xiong.huang@atheros.com&gt;, 	Chris Snook &lt;csnook@redhat.com&gt;, Jay Cliburn &lt;jcliburn@gmail.com&gt;

Move the modinfo data out of atlx.h and into atl1.c to eliminate
the confusion:

$ /sbin/modinfo drivers/net/atlx/atl1.ko | egrep "version|description|author"
version:        2.1.3
