98a95b9cc9 staging: octeon: remove redundant license text
Now that the SPDX tag is in all drivers/staging/octeon/ files, that
identifies the license in a specific and legally-defined manner.  So the
extra GPL text wording can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.

This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text.  And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.

No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

30bdc499d7 staging: octeon: add SPDX identifiers.
It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.

Fix up the staging octeon driver to have a proper SPDX identifier, based
on the license text in the file itself.  The SPDX identifier is a
legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler
plate text.

This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

3368c784bc Staging: Octeon Ethernet: Convert to NAPI.
Convert the driver to be a reasonably well behaved NAPI citizen.

There is one NAPI instance per CPU shared between all input ports.  As
receive backlog increases, NAPI is scheduled on additional CPUs.

Receive buffer refill code factored out so it can also be called from
the periodic timer.  This is needed to recover from temporary buffer
starvation conditions.

80ff0fd3ab Staging: Add octeon-ethernet driver files.
The octeon-ethernet driver supports the sgmii, rgmii, spi, and xaui
ports present on the Cavium OCTEON family of SOCs.  These SOCs are
multi-core mips64 processors with existing support over in arch/mips.

The driver files can be categorized into three basic groups:

1) Register definitions, these are named cvmx-*-defs.h

2) Main driver code, these have names that don't start cvmx-.

3) Interface specific functions and other utility code, names starting
with cvmx-
