Updates of the RBRDU have two different meanings depending on their
context:
1. the receiving process has not started - the value which is written
into the RBRDU register is supposed to be the free rx descriptors
count (rounded to a multiple of 4)
2. the receiving process is running - the value increments the count
above (sic)
The update is currently issued deep inside the rx replenish chain (see
velocity_give_many_rx_descs).
Let's propagate enough information to the caller so that the rx
replenish functions do not depend on hardware any more.
It is needed to perform the Rx/Tx buffers housekeeping when MTU changes.

Executive summary: the bounce buffers are in my way
- they use something like a 64 * 1500 bytes area of PCI
consistent area
- they are not resized when the MTU changes
- they are used
- to hand-pad undersized packets. skb_pad anyone ?
- to linearize fragmented skbs whose fragment count
goes beyond the 7 fragments hardware limit in order
to claim scatter-gather support
Actually the SG code is commented out and I wonder if it
could not be implemented (ab-)using the large send feature
of the chipset since the latter should support some
multi-descriptor packet transmitting.

The scenario goes like this. App stops reading from tun/tap.
TX queue gets full and driver does netif_stop_queue().
App closes fd and TX queue gets flushed as part of the cleanup.
Next time the app opens tun/tap and starts reading from it but
the xoff state is not cleared. We're stuck.
Normally xoff state is cleared when netdev is brought up. But
in the case of persistent devices this happens only during
initial setup.
The fix is trivial. If device is already up when an app opens
it we clear xoff state and that gets things moving again.

fn_trie_lookup() would previously return a negative error value from
check_leaf(), it now returns 0.
Now fn_trie_lookup() doesn't appear to care about plen, so we can revert
check_leaf() to returning the error value.

When a conntrack entry is destroyed in process context and destruction
is interrupted by packet processing and the packet is an attempt to
reopen a closed connection, TCP conntrack tries to kill the old entry
itself and returns NF_REPEAT to pass the packet through the hook
again. This may lead to an endless loop: TCP conntrack repeatedly
finds the old entry, but can not kill it itself since destruction
is already in progress, but destruction in process context can not
complete since TCP conntrack is keeping the CPU busy.
Drop the packet in TCP conntrack if we can't kill the connection
ourselves to avoid this.

As soon as init_registers() was called, the rt2400/rt2500
would start raising beacondone interrupts. Since this is highly
premature since no beacons were provided yet, we should
initialize the synchronization register to 0.
This will make all drivers initialize it to 0 regardless
if they are raising beacondone interrupts or not, since it only
makes sense to have it completely disabled.
