    Subject[PATCH v7 0/3] net: Add Keystone NetCP ethernet driver support
    Date
    v6->v7
    Fixed some minor documentation error and also modified the netcp driver
    to fix the set* functions to include correct le/be macros.

    v5->v6
    updated version after incorporating comments [6] from David Miller,
    David Laight & Geert Uytterhoeven on v5. I would like get this in
    for v3.19 merge window if the latest version is acceptable.

    v4->v5
    Sorry to spin v5 quickly but I missed few check-patch warnings which
    were pointed by Joe Perches(thanks). I folded his changes [5] along with
    few more check-patch warning fixes. I would like get this in for v3.18
    merge window if David is happy with this version.

    v3->v4
    Couple of fixes in in error path as pointed [4] out by David. Rest of
    the patches are unchanged from v3.

    v2->v3
    Update v3 after incorporating Jamal and David Miller's comment/suggestion
    from earlier versions [1] [2]. After per the discussion here [3], the
    controversial custom exports have been dropped now. And for future
    future offload support additions, we will plug into generic frameworks
    as an when they are available.

    The network coprocessor (NetCP) is a hardware accelerator that processes
    Ethernet packets. NetCP has a gigabit Ethernet (GbE) subsystem with a ethernet
    switch sub-module to send and receive packets. NetCP also includes a packet
    accelerator (PA) module to perform packet classification operations such as
    header matching, and packet modification operations such as checksum
    generation. NetCP can also optionally include a Security Accelerator(SA)
    capable of performing IPSec operations on ingress/egress packets.

    Keystone SoC's also have a 10 Gigabit Ethernet Subsystem (XGbE) which
    includes a 3-port Ethernet switch sub-module capable of 10Gb/s and
    1Gb/s rates per Ethernet port.

    Both GBE and XGBE network processors supported using common driver. It
    is also designed to handle future variants of NetCP.
