commit 96dee024ca4799d6d21588951240035c21ba1c67 upstream.
Previous commit c3a0dce35af0 fixed an overrun for the RAR on i218 devices.
This commit also attempted to homogenize the RAR/SHRA access for all parts
accessed by the e1000e driver. This change introduced an error for
assigning MAC addresses to guest OS's for 82579 devices.
Only RAR[0] is accessible to the driver for 82579 parts, and additional
addresses must be placed into the SHRA[L|H] registers. The rar_entry_count
was changed in the previous commit to an inaccurate value that accounted
for all RAR and SHRA registers, not just the ones usable by the driver.
This patch fixes the count to the correct value and adjusts the
e1000_rar_set_pch2lan() function to user the correct index.

When copying the MAC RAR registers to PHY there is an error in the
calculation of the rar_entry_count, which causes a write of unknown/
undefined register space in the MAC to unknown/undefined register space in
the PHY.
This patch fixes the overrun with writing to the PHY RAR and also fixes the
ethtool offline register tests so that the correctly addressed registers
have the appropriate bitmasks for R/W and RO bits for affected parts.
Shawn Rader gets credit for finding and fixing the register overrun.

Tx hang is an unintended consequence of another workaround that is in the
EEPROM for an issue with the firmware at 10Mbps when K1 (a power mode of
the MAC-PHY interconnect) is enabled. The issue is resolved by setting
appropriate Tx re-transmission timeouts in the PHY and associated K1 entry
times in the MAC to allow enough transmissions to occur without triggering
a Tx hang. A similar change is needed when linked at 10Mbps to improve
latency.

Devices supported by the driver which support EEE (currently 82579, I217
and I218) are advertising EEE capabilities during auto-negotiation even
when EEE has been disabled. In addition to not acting as expected, this
also caused the EEE status reported by 'ethtool --show-eee' to be wrong
when two of these devices are connected back-to-back and EEE is disabled
on one. In addition to fixing this issue, the ability for the user to
specify which speeds (100 or 1000 full-duplex) to advertise EEE support
has been added.

Two 82579 LOMs connected via a 10Mb hub experience extraordinarily low
performance. This is because 82579 is excessively aggressive on transmit
at 10Mb half-duplex and will not provide sufficient time for the link
partner to transmit. When the link partner is also 82579, the result is a
lot of collisions (and corresponding re-transmits) that cause the poor
performance. To work-around this issue, significantly increase the IPG in
the MAC to allow enough gap for the link partner to transmit and reduce the
Rx latency in the analog PHY to 0 to reduce the number of collisions.

At 1000Mbps link speed, one of the MAC's internal clocks can be stopped for
up to 4us when entering K1 (a power mode of the MAC-PHY interconnect). If
the MAC is waiting for completion indications for 2 DMA write requests into
Host memory (e.g. descriptor writeback or Rx packet writing) and the
indications occur while the clock is stopped, both indications will be
missed by the MAC causing the MAC to wait for the completion indications
and be unable to generate further DMA write requests. This results in an
apparent hardware hang.
Work-around the issue by disabling the de-assertion of the clock request
when 1000Mbps link is acquired (K1 must be disabled while doing this).

Move #defines and function prototypes specific to the ICH/PCH family of
devices (ICH8/82562, ICH8/82566, ICH8/82567, ICH9/82562, ICH9/82566,
ICH9/82567, ICH10/82567, 82577, 82578, 82579, I217, I218) to the new
ich8lan.h header file (the convention for Intel wired ethernet drivers is
to use the name of the first device in the family for related file and
function names). These defines and function prototypes can be used by
other files in the driver and moving them to the ICH/PCH-family-specific
file makes it clearer to which devices they are applicable.
