The method ndo_start_xmit() returns a value of type netdev_tx_t. Fix
the ndo function to use the correct type.

refcount_t type and corresponding API should be
used instead of atomic_t when the variable is used as
a reference counter. This allows to avoid accidental

Add handling of a local mport device removal.

RIONET driver registers itself as class interface that supports only
removal notification, 'add_device' callback is not provided because
RIONET network device can be initialized only after enumeration is
completed and the existing method (using remote peer addition) satisfies
this condition.

Add shutdown notification handler which terminates active connections
with remote RapidIO nodes.  This prevents remote nodes from sending
packets to the powered off node and eliminates hardware error events on
remote nodes.

These patches are the result of extensive collaboration within the
RapidIO.org Software Task Group between Texas Instruments, Freescale,
Prodrive Technologies, Nokia Networks, BAE and IDT.  Additional input
was received from other members of RapidIO.org.  The objective was to
create a character mode driver interface which exposes the capabilities
of RapidIO devices directly to applications, in a manner that allows the
numerous and varied RapidIO implementations to interoperate.

The Software Task Group has also developed fabric management, Remote
Memory Access, and sockets applications which make use of these
interfaces in user space.  Intensive testing with these applications
prompted the RapidIO subsystem updates provided within this set of
patches.

This patch (of 29):

Replace default Ethernet-specific routine by the custom one to allow
setting of larger MTU supported by RapidIO messaging (max RIO packet
size is 4096 bytes).
