r8169: align the IP header when there is no DMA constraint
Align the IP header when the chipset can DMA at any location (plain 0x8169).
Otherwise (0x8136/0x8168) obey the constraint imposed by the hardware.
This patch complements the previous alignment rework done for copybreak.
Original idea from Philip Craig <philipc@...pgear.com>

r8169: MSI support
It is currently limited to 0x8136 and 0x8168. 8169sb/8110sb ought to
handle it as well where they support MSI.

r8169: confusion between hardware and IP header alignment
The rx copybreak part is straightforward.
The align field in struct rtl_cfg_info is related to the alignment
requirements of the DMA operation. Its value is set at 2 to limit the
scale of possible regression but my old v1.21 8169 datasheet claims a
8 bytes requirements (that was never followed by the driver of course)
and the 8101/8168 go with a plain 8 bytes alignments. Yuck...
/me waits for the attack of ballistic vegetables...

r8169: merge with version 8.001.00 of Realtek's r8168 driver
This one includes:
- more tweaks to rtl_hw_start_8168
- a work around for a Rx FiFO overflow issue on the 8168Bb
+ rtl8169_{intr_mask/napi_event} are replaced with per-device fields
+ rtl_cfg_info is converted to C99 for readability but the values are
not changed for the 8169/8110 and the 8101
Includes ChipCmd fix from Bernhard Walle <bwalle@...e.de> (2007/02/24).

r8169: merge with version 6.001.00 of Realtek's r8169 driver
- new identifier for the 8110SCe ;
- the PCI latency timer is set unconditionally. This part is identical
in Realtek's r8168 (8.001.00) and r8101 (1.001.00) ;
- initialization of the cache line size register is for the 8169s only ;
- more magic in rtl_hw_start_8169 ;
- it is not possible to factor out the setting of the the irq event mask
with the 8168 and the 8101 any more. Pushed it into the hw_start handler ;
- rtl_set_rx_tx_config_registers() and write to the ChipCmd register are
issued identically for the whole 8169/8110 family: the 8110SCd/8110SCe
make no more difference ;
- work around for AMD platform.
I let aside some registers definitions for later.

r8169: add per-device hw_start handler (2/2)
Part 2: populate the hw_start handlers for the 8168 and the 8101.
- annotate mac_version
- factor out the initialization of the receive and transmit ring
descriptor registers (rtl_set_rx_tx_desc_registers)
- access to the CPlusCmd and setting of the maximum receive size are
idiomatic too (rtl_rw_cpluscmd and rtl_set_rx_max_size)
Each chipset should run through the same code as before in its
dedicated hw_start handler.

r8169: add per-device hw_start handler (1/2)
rtl8169_hw_start will not help maintaining an unified driver for
different chipsets but people at Realtek are probably too polite
to say it distinctly.
Part 1: add the hook and keep hw_start handler unchanged.
As can be seen from the content of rtl8169_pci_tbl, the RTL_CFG_1
entry in rtl_cfg_info was unused. I recycled it for the 0x8168.
