Subject: [RFC Patch 1/3] netpoll: add generic support for bridge and bonding devices


This whole patchset is for adding netpoll support to bridge and bonding
devices. I already tested it for bridge, bonding, bridge over bonding,
and bonding over bridge. It looks fine now.

Please comment.


To make bridge and bonding support netpoll, we need to adjust
some netpoll generic code. This patch does the following things:

1) introduce two new priv_flags for struct net_device:
   IFF_IN_NETPOLL which identifies we are processing a netpoll;
   IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL is used to disable netpoll support for a device
   at run-time;

2) introduce three new methods for netdev_ops:
   ->ndo_netpoll_setup() is used to setup netpoll for a device;
   ->ndo_netpoll_xmit() is used to transmit netpoll requests;
   ->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() is used to clean up netpoll when a device is
     removed.

3) introduce netpoll_poll_dev() which takes a struct net_device * parameter;

4) export netpoll_send_skb() and netpoll_poll_dev() which will be used later;

5) hide a pointer to struct netpoll in struct netpoll_info, ditto.
