Doing this makes loopback.c a better example of how to do a
simple network device, and it removes the special case
single static allocation of a struct net_device, hopefully
making maintenance easier.

This patch replaces all occurences to the static variable
loopback_dev to a pointer loopback_dev. That provides the
mindless, trivial, uninteressting change part for the dynamic
allocation for the loopback.

Layout of opts2 is

regardless of the host endianness. On little-endian
the current code ends up with the right values, but
on big-endian it blows. In r8169.c the same bug
had been fixed in commit d35da12a40426184b1d0844104b1d464753eba19

Based on BenH's earlier work, this is a new version of the EMAC driver
for the built-in ethernet found on PowerPC 4xx embedded CPUs. The
same ASIC is also found in the Axon bridge chip. This new version is
designed to work in the arch/powerpc tree, using the device tree to
probe the device, rather than the old and ugly arch/ppc OCP layer.
This driver is designed to sit alongside the old driver (that lies in
drivers/net/ibm_emac and this one in drivers/net/ibm_newemac). The
old driver is left in place to support arch/ppc until arch/ppc itself
reaches its final demise (not too long now, with luck).
This driver still has a number of things that could do with cleaning
up, but I think they can be fixed up after merging. Specifically:
- Should be adjusted to properly use the dma mapping API.
Axon needs this.
- Probe logic needs reworking, in conjuction with the general
probing code for of_platform devices. The dependencies here between
EMAC, MAL, ZMII etc. make this complicated. At present, it usually
works, because we initialize and register the sub-drivers before the
EMAC driver itself, and (being in driver code) runs after the devices
themselves have been instantiated from the device tree.

Alex Landau writes in the forums:
Previously, changing the MAC address (e.g. via ifconfig) resulted
in a generic function to be called that only changed a variable in
memory. This patch also updated the Blackfin MAC address registers
to filter the correct new MAC.

- Copying permanent mac address to dev->perm_addr
- Incorporated following review comments from Jeff
- Converted the macro to a function and removed call to memset
- regarding function naming convention, for all callbacks and entry points
will have 's2io_' prefix and helper functions will have 'do_s2io_' prefix.

For the operations
get-tx-csum
get-sg
get-tso
get-ufo
the default ethtool_op_xxx behavior is fine for all drivers, so we
permit op==NULL to imply the default behavior.
This provides a more uniform behavior across all drivers, eliminating
ethtool(8) "ioctl not supported" errors on older drivers that had
not been updated for the latest sub-ioctls.
The ethtool_op_xxx() functions are left exported, in case anyone
wishes to call them directly from a driver-private implementation --
a not-uncommon case. Should an ethtool_op_xxx() helper remain unused
for a while, except by net/core/ethtool.c, we can un-export it at a
later date.
