Re: [net 0/8] gianfar: ARM port driver updates (1/2)

This is the first round of driver protability fixes and clean-up
with the main purpose to make gianfar portable on ARM, for the ARM
based SoC that integrates the eTSEC ethernet controller - "ls1021a".
The patches primarily address compile time errors, when compiling
gianfar on ARM.  They replace PPC specific functions and macros
with architecture independent ones, solve arch specific header
inclusions, guard code that relates to PPC only, and even address
some simple endianess issues (see MAC address setup patch).
The patches addressing the bulk of remaining endianess issues,
like handling DMA fields (BD and FCB), will follow with the sencond
round.
These patches were verified on the ls1021a SoC.

If more endianness fixes are necessary and "will follow with the
second round", I do not see how you could have verified specifically
these changes on the ls1021a.
