<title>net: remove mm.h inclusion from netdevice.h</title>

Remove linux/mm.h inclusion from netdevice.h -- it's unused (I've checked manually).

To prevent mm.h inclusion via other channels also extract "enum dma_data_direction"
definition into separate header. This tiny piece is what gluing netdevice.h with mm.h
via "netdevice.h =&gt; dmaengine.h =&gt; dma-mapping.h =&gt; scatterlist.h =&gt; mm.h".
Removal of mm.h from scatterlist.h was tried and was found not feasible
on most archs, so the link was cutoff earlier.

Hope people are OK with tiny include file.

Note, that mm_types.h is still dragged in, but it is a separate story.

Several fixes as well where the +1 was missing.

Done via coccinelle scripts like:

@@
struct resource *ptr;
@@

- ptr-&gt;end - ptr-&gt;start + 1
+ resource_size(ptr)

and some grep and typing.

Mostly uncompiled, no cross-compilers.

Having conditional around the of_match_table and the of_node pointers
turns out to make driver code use ugly #ifdef blocks.  Drop the
conditionals and remove the #ifdef blocks from the affected drivers.

Also tidy up minor whitespace issues within the same hunks.

Calculating the BD entry using a modulus operation isn't optimal, especially
inside the loop.  This patch removes the modulus operations in favour of:

i)  simply checking for wrapping in the case of cur_rx
ii) forcing num_tx to be a power of two and using it to mask out the
    entry from cur_tx

The also prevents possible issues related overflow of the cur_rx and cur_tx
counters.

MDIO read and write were checking whether a timeout had expired to determine
whether to recheck the result of the MDIO operation.  Under heavy CPU usage,
however, it was possible for the timeout to expire before the routine got
around to be able to check a second time even, thus erroneousy returning an
-EBUSY.

This patch changes the the MDIO IO routines to try up to five times to complete
the operation before giving up, thus lessening the dependency on CPU load.

This resolves a problem whereby a ping flood would keep the CPU so busy that
the above problem would manifest itself; the MDIO command to check link status
would fail and the interface would erroneously be shut down.
