02460d0893 netdev: bfin_mac: push settings to platform resources
Move all the pin settings out of the Kconfig and into the platform
resources (MII vs RMII).  This clean up also lets us push out the
phy settings so that board porters may control the layout.

4fcc3d3409 netdev:bfin_mac: reclaim and free tx skb as soon as possible after transfer
SKBs hold onto resources that can't be held indefinitely, such as TCP
socket references and netfilter conntrack state.  So if a packet is left
in TX ring for a long time, there might be a TCP socket that cannot be
closed and freed up.

Current blackfin EMAC driver always reclaim and free used tx skbs in future
transfers. The problem is that future transfer may not come as soon as
possible. This patch start a timer after transfer to reclaim and free skb.
There is nearly no performance drop with this patch.

TX interrupt is not enabled because of a strange behavior of the Blackfin EMAC.
If EMAC TX transfer control is turned on, endless TX interrupts are triggered
no matter if TX DMA is enabled or not. Since DMA walks down the ring automatically,
TX transfer control can't be turned off in the middle. The only way is to disable
TX interrupt completely.

fe92afedee netdev: bfin_mac: add support for IEEE 1588 PTP
Newer on-chip MAC peripherals support IEEE 1588 PTP in the hardware, so
extend the driver to support this functionality.

298cf9beb9 phylib: move to dynamic allocation of struct mii_bus
This patch introduces mdiobus_alloc() and mdiobus_free(), and
makes all mdio bus drivers use these functions to allocate their
struct mii_bus'es dynamically.

09f75cd7bf [NET] drivers/net: statistics cleanup #1 -- save memory and shrink code
We now have struct net_device_stats embedded in struct net_device,
and the default ->get_stats() hook does the obvious thing for us.

Run through drivers/net/* and remove the driver-local storage of
statistics, and driver-local ->get_stats() hook where applicable.

This was just the low-hanging fruit in drivers/net; plenty more drivers
remain to be updated.
