(microblaze, arc, arm64, and unicore32 have already defined PCI_IOBASE).

We should prefer `struct pci_device_id` over `DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE` to
meet kernel coding style guidelines.  This issue was reported by checkpatch.

A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as
follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/):

// &lt;smpl&gt;

@@
identifier i;
declarer name DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE;
initializer z;
@@

- DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE(i)

This fixes issues with debug printk calls across the driver, normally
disabled; first compilation errors:

drivers/net/fddi/defxx.c:820:1: error: pasting "(" and ""In dfx_bus_uninit...\n"" does not give a valid preprocessing token

and so on, and then warnings:

drivers/net/fddi/defxx.c: In function 'dfx_driver_init':
drivers/net/fddi/defxx.c:1132: warning: format '%0X' expects type 'unsigned int', but argument 4 has type 'dma_addr_t'
drivers/net/fddi/defxx.c:1132: warning: format '%0X' expects type 'unsigned int', but argument 4 has type 'dma_addr_t'

etc.  Additionally casts are removed from virtual addresses and %p used.

<title>defxx: Add missing DMA synchronisation calls</title>

This adds DMA synchronisation calls needed in the receive path:

1. To retrieve the Receive Status word that is prepended by the PDQ DMA
   engine in the receive buffer, and provides information about the
   frame received, including its size and any errors.

2. To make data received available for copying in the small-frame case
   (size &lt;= SKBUFF_RX_COPYBREAK) where the original DMA buffer will be
   returned to the receive descriptor ring and therefore its mapping
   retained.

   With DMA mapping error handling in place, added by the other patch,
   this may now also trigger where an attempt to map a newly allocated
   buffer for DMA has failed.  In that case data from the original buffer
   will be copied out and the buffer returned to the DMA descriptor ring.

These calls may do nothing when data is in the host DMA addressing range
of the FDDI interface, such as always on 32-bit systems, however their
absence makes frame reception stop functioning reliably on systems that
have memory beyond the low 4GB of the address space.

This adds error handling for DMA mapping requests; I think there isn't
much else to say about it.

A good side-effect is the mapping in the transmit path is now made with
the board lock released.  Also if DMA mapping fails for a newly
allocated receive buffer, then data from the old buffer will be copied
out (as is presently done for small frames only whose size does not
exceed SKBUFF_RX_COPYBREAK) and the original buffer returned, with its
mapping unchanged, to the DMA descriptor ring.

Switch the two remaining places across the driver that use dev_alloc_skb

__netdev_alloc_skb, no idea why these two have been left behind.

Prearranged receive DMA bounce buffer mappings are not released in the
card reboot/shutdown path.  That does not affect frame reception, but
probably explains the random segmentation fault I observed the other day
on interface shutdown.  Card is rebooted as required by the spec in the
process of ring fault recovery when a PC Trace signal has been received.

This change fixes the problem in an obvious manner.

Receive DMA maps are oversized, they include EISA legacy 128-byte
alignment padding in size calculation whereas this padding is never used
for data.  Worse yet, if the skb's data area has been realigned indeed,
then data beyond the end of the buffer will be synchronised from the
receive DMA bounce buffer, possibly corrupting data structures residing
in memory beyond the actual end of this data buffer.

Therefore switch to using PI_RCV_DATA_K_SIZE_MAX rather than NEW_SKB_SIZE
in DMA mapping, the value the former macro expands to is written to the
receive ring DMA descriptor of the PDQ DMA chip and determines the
maximum amount of data PDQ will ever transfer to the corresponding data
buffer, including all headers and padding.
