[PATCH RFC 00/15] via-rhine: fix resume, cleanup, eth ops (regs)

[Andreas Mohr <andi@lisas.de>]

From: Andreas Mohr <andim2@users.sf.net>

This patchset fixes suspend/resume of via-rhine in the NetworkManager case
(patch 0001), with subsequent patches being predominantly
about general cleanup/renovation work
(one patch adds get_regs() ethtool support, though).

Currently marked as RFC since it's somewhat larger,
without prior review activity.

checkpatch.pl'd patchset against a slightly oldish master
(current state of via-rhine.c in linux-next is identical).

Note that some parts in this patchset have a dependency on predecessors
(e.g. __read_mostly comes to mind).

I managed to stay at 15 patches, thus right at (below) the
official mailing list patch limit.

Somehow Christmas must have been mighty boring :)

And one of the patches narrows down on non-default
compiler warning levels, too (c.f. my recent LKML tirade).

The first patch (resume fix) possibly is -stable material,
but since layer separation currently is not crystal clear
there might be some risk, thus I'm hesitating.

Thanks!
