Rewrite the old thread based code to use a workqueue instead. This
removes a pile of complexity, locks and queues and eliminates problem
that cmd handling could have been killed from userspace.

It is safe to use GFP_KERNEL in a workqueue handler, and check the

This patch fixes the PTP Tx timestamp interrupt handler. The original
code misinterpreted the interrupt handler design. We were clearing the
ena_mask bit for the Timesync interrupts. This is done to indicate that
the interrupt will be handled in a scheduled work item (instead of
immediately) and that work item is responsible for re-enabling the
interrupts. However, the Tx timestamp was being handled immediately and
nothing was ever re-enabling it. This resulted in a single interrupt
working for the life of the driver.
This patch fixes the issue by instead clearing the bit from icr0 which
is used to indicate that the interrupt was immediately handled and can
be re-enabled right away. This patch also clears up a related issue due
to writing the PRTTSYN_STAT_0 register, which was unintentionally
clearing the cause bits for Timesync interrupts.

====================
this is a pull request for net/master, for the v3.15 release cycle, consisting
of 26 patches.
Thomas Gleixner contributes 21 patches for the c_can driver, which address
several shortcomings in the driver like hardware initialisation, concurrency,
message ordering and poor performance. Two patches Oliver Hartkopp, one adds a
missing lock to the sja1000_isa driver, the other one fixes the return value in
the generic bit time configuration function. And finally a patch by Alexander
Stein, that fixes the slcan driver to use the correct spinlock variant.
To make it 26 patches, Wolfgang Grandegger patch for the c_can_pci
driver, which enables the bus master only for MSI and a patch by
Wolfram Sang, which converts the 'instance' in the c_can driver to the
proper type.

This series of patches addresses a handful of issues found in testing
and reported by users of the Altera Triple Speed Ethernet soft IP.
The patches address the following issues (in summary)
1) The SGDMA soft IP was found to incorrectly process receive packets
when the target physical address of the receive buffer was on
a boundary that's not 32-bit aligned. One of the patches addresses
this issue.
2) The pause quanta was not being set by the driver, one patch of this
series sets the pause quanta to the IEEE defined default value
since the hardware reset value is 0.
3) An issue in a error recovery path of the probe routine caused a
kernel panic in the event a phy was probed and could not be found.
A patch addresses this issue.
4) A change was made to the driver name for Ethtool support, and
comments added to support an addition to Ethtool to support
the Altera Triple Speed Ethernet controller.

This patch works around a recently discovered unaligned receive dma problem
with the Altera SGMDA. The Altera SGDMA component cannot be configured to
DMA data to unaligned addresses for receive packet operations from the
Triple Speed Ethernet component because of a potential data transfer
corruption that can occur. This patch addresses this issue by
utilizing the shift 16 bits feature of the Altera Triple Speed Ethernet
component and modifying the receive buffer physical addresses accordingly
such that the target receive DMA address is always aligned on a 32-bit
boundary.
