<title>sfc: Use netif_device_{detach,attach}() around reset and self-test</title>

We need to keep the TX queues stopped throughout a reset, without
triggering the TX watchdog and regardless of the link state.  The
proper way to do this is to use netif_device_{detach,attach}() just as
we do around suspend/resume, rather than the current bodge of faking
link-down.

Since we also need to do this during an offline self-test and we
perform a reset during that, add these function calls outside of
efx_reset_down() and efx_reset_up().

The phy, mac, and board information structures should be const.
Since tables contain function pointer this improves security
(at least theoretically).

Compile tested only.

<title>sfc: Do not use efx_process_channel_now() in online self-test</title>

<id>d4fabcc8e8ecac21262b1a5b9684fe415b128bd2</id>
<content type='text'>
During self-tests we use efx_process_channel_now() to handle
completion and other events synchronously.  This disables interrupts
and NAPI processing for the channel in question, but it may still be
interrupted by another channel.  A single socket may receive packets
from multiple net devices or even multiple channels of the same net
device, so this can result in deadlock on a socket lock.

Receiving packets in process context will also result in incorrect
classification by the network cgroup classifier.

Therefore, we must only use efx_process_channel_now() in the offline
loopback tests (which never deliver packets up the stack) and not for
the online interrupt and event tests.

For the interrupt test, there is no reason to process events.  We
only care that an interrupt is raised.

For the event test, we want to know whether events have been received,
and there may be many events ahead of the one we inject.  Therefore
remove efx_channel::magic_count and instead test whether
efx_channel::eventq_read_ptr advances.  This is currently an event
queue index and might wrap around to exactly the same value, resulting
in a false negative.  Therefore move the masking to efx_event() and
efx_nic_eventq_read_ack() so that it cannot wrap within the time of
the test.

The event test also tries to diagnose failures by checking whether an
event was delivered without causing an interrupt.  Add and use a
helper function that only does this.
