This change is lifted directly from vendor version 1.2.40.2 of the L1

Fixed rare issue that 'lv1_net_start_rx_dma failed, status=-9" was shown
in dmesg. This meant restarting rx DMA had been rejected by the hypervisor.
This issue would caused if the guest os requested starting DMA when
the hypervisor thought the DMA was in progress.
The state machine for DMA status of the hypervisor would be updated
by processing interrupt in the hypervisor.
Thus we should wait for the interrupt delivery before restarting
DMA.

gelic: TX descriptor handling cleanup
- Emitted return value of NETDEV_TX_LOCKED when DMA map or kick
failure.
Now it would free the skb, update drop packet statistics
and return OK. Requested from Jeff Garzik.
- Enable tx queue if number of free descriptors are more than 2
- Fixed descriptor leak if dma map for second descriptor failed
- Stopped calling xmit handler from interrupt handler in order
to recheck tx queue. Instead, call appropriate helper functions.

The FW command token is currently only updated on a command completion
event. This means that on command timeout, the same token will be
reused for new command, which results in a mess if the timed out
command *does* eventually complete.
This is the same change as the patch for mthca from Michael
S. Tsirkin <mst@dev.mellanox.co.il> that was just merged. It seems
sensible to avoid gratuitous differences in FW command processing
between mthca and mlx4.

Tina Yang <tina.yang@oracle.com> discovered an MSI related problem
when doing kdump. The problem is that the kexec kernel is booted
without going through system reset, and as a result, MSI may already
be enabled when tg3_init_one() is called. tg3_init_one() calls
pci_save_state() which will save the stale MSI state. Later on in
tg3_open(), we call pci_enable_msi() to reconfigure MSI on the chip
before we reset the chip. After chip reset, we call
pci_restore_state() which will put the stale MSI address/data back
onto the chip.
This is no longer a problem in the latest kernel because
pci_restore_state() has been changed to restore MSI state from
internal data structures which will guarantee restoring the proper
MSI state.
But I think we should still fix it. Our save and restore sequence
can still cause very subtle problems down the road. The fix is to
have our own functions save and restore precisely what we need. We
also change it to save and restore state inside tg3_chip_reset() in a
more straight forward way.
Thanks to Tina for helping to test and debug the problem.

The driver didn't allow an interface's MAC address to be modified if the
respective interface wasn't setup - a failing Hcall was the result. Thus
bonding wasn't usable. The fix moves the failing Hcall which was registering
a MAC address for the reception of BC packets in firmware from the port up
and down functions to the port resources setup functions. Additionally the
missing update of the last_rx member of the netdev structure was added.
