<id>945a51517cc0bd9e461f2018624dfc1faef9ddee</id>
<content type='text'>
after review of all intel drivers, found several instances where
drivers had the incorrect pattern of:
memory mapped write();
delay();

which should always be:
memory mapped write();
write flush(); /* aka memory mapped read */
delay();

explanation:
The reason for including the flush is that writes can be held
(posted) in PCI/PCIe bridges, but the read always has to complete
synchronously and therefore has to flush all pending writes to a
device.  If a write is held and followed by a delay, the delay
means nothing because the write may not have reached hardware
(maybe even not until the next read)

After discovering that wide use of prefetch on modern CPUs
could be a net loss instead of a win, net drivers which were
relying on the implicit inclusion of prefetch.h via the list
headers showed up in the resulting cleanup fallout.  Give
them an explicit include via the following $0.02 script.

 =========================================

<title>ethtool: cosmetic: Use ethtool ethtool_cmd_speed API</title>

<id>707394972093e2056e1e8cc39be19cf9bcb3e7b3</id>
<content type='text'>
This updates the network drivers so that they don't access the
ethtool_cmd::speed field directly, but use ethtool_cmd_speed()
instead.

For most of the drivers, these changes are purely cosmetic and don't
fix any problem, such as for those 1GbE/10GbE drivers that indirectly
call their own ethtool get_settings()/mii_ethtool_gset(). The changes
are meant to enforce code consistency and provide robustness with
future larger throughputs, at the expense of a few CPU cycles for each
ethtool operation.

All drivers compiled with make allyesconfig ion x86_64 have been
updated.

Tested: make allyesconfig on x86_64 + e1000e/bnx2x work
