sungem_phy: support bcm5461 phy, autoneg.
This version moves the medium variable to the card specific structure and

This patch adds improved version of enable_fiber for both the 5421 and
the 5461 phy. It is now possible to specify with these wether you want
autonegotiation or not. This is needed for bladecenter switches where
some expect autonegotiation and some dont seem to like this at all.
Depending on this flag it sets phy->autoneg accordingly for the fiber mode.
More importantly it implements proper read_link and poll_link functions
for both phys which can handle both copper and fiber mode by determining
the medium first and then branching to the required functions. For fiber
they all work fine, for copper they are not tested but return the result
of the genmii_* function anyway which is supposed to work.
The patch moves the genmii_* functions around to avoid foreward declarations.

The problem that this patch corrects happens when all of the following

1. PR-SCTP is used and the timeout on the chunks is set below RTO.Max.
2. One of the paths on a multihomed associations is brought down.
In this scenario, data will expire within the rto of the initial
transmission and will never be retransmitted. However this data still
fills the send buffer and is counted against the association as outstanding
data. This causes any new data not to be sent and retransmission to not
happen.
The fix is to discount the abandoned data from the outstanding count and
peers rwnd estimation. This allows new data to be sent and a retransmission
timer restarted. Even though this new data will most likely expire within
the rto, the timer still counts as a strike against the transport and forces
the FORWARD-TSN chunk to be retransmitted as well.

move_native_irqs tries to do the right thing when migrating irqs
by disabling them. However disabling them is a software logical
thing, not a hardware thing. This has always been a little flaky
and after Ingo's latest round of changes it is guaranteed to not
mask the apic.
So this patch fixes move_native_irq to directly call the mask and
unmask chip methods to guarantee that we mask the irq when we
are migrating it. We must do this as it is required by
all code that call into the path.
Since we don't know the masked status when IRQ_DISABLED is
set so we will not be able to restore it. The patch makes the code
just give up and trying again the next time this routing is called.

[PATCH] x86_64 irq: Safely cleanup an irq after moving it.
The problem: After moving an interrupt when is it safe to teardown
the data structures for receiving the interrupt at the old location?
With a normal pci device it is possible to issue a read to a device
to flush all posted writes. This does not work for the oldest ioapics
because they are on a 3-wire apic bus which is a completely different
data path. For some more modern ioapics when everything is using
front side bus delivery you can flush interrupts by simply issuing a
read to the ioapic. For other modern ioapics emperical testing has
shown that this does not work.
So it appears the only reliable way to know the last of the irqs from an
ioapic have been received from before the ioapic was reprogrammed is to
received the first irq from the ioapic from after it was reprogrammed.
Once we know the last irq message has been received from an ioapic
into a local apic we then need to know that irq message has been
processed through the local apics.
