Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/2] smsc911x: add support for sh3 RX DMA

I've been working on adding DMA support to the smsc911x driver.  As this 
family of devices is non-pci, DMA transfers must be initiated and 
controlled by the host CPU.  Unfortunately this makes some of the code 
necessarily platform-specific.

This patch adds RX DMA support for the sh architecture.  Tested on 
SH7709S (sh3), where it gives a small (~10%) iperf tcp throughput 
increase.  DMA or PIO is selected at compile-time.

My first attempt stopped NAPI polling during a DMA transfer, then used 
DMA completion interrupts to pass the packet up and re-enable polling.
Obviously this defeats the interrupt-mitigation of NAPI, and on my test 
platform actually *reduced* performance!

This patch leaves NAPI polling enabled, so a later poll completes the 
transfer.  I'm concerned this is essentially busy-waiting on the 
transfer, but it does show a small performance gain.  Is this a good or 
bad idea?

I'd be interested to hear if anyone has advice on how to make this 
patch more generic.  There's definitely been interest from arm pxa
users in adding DMA, and some of this code must be re-usable for this.
