Based on the original patch submitted my Michael Wang
<wangyun@linux.vnet.ibm.com>.
Descriptors may not be write-back while checking TX hang with flag
FLAG2_DMA_BURST on.
So when we detect hang, we just flush the descriptor and detect
again for once.
-v2 change 1 to true and 0 to false and remove extra ()

Commit 67fd4fcb (e1000e: convert to stats64) added the ability to update
statistics more accurately and on-demand through the net_device_ops
.ndo_get_stats64 hook, but introduced a locking bug on 82577/8/9 when
linked at half-duplex (seen on kernels with CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y and
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y). The commit introduced code paths that caused a
mutex to be locked in atomic contexts, e.g. an rcu_read_lock is held when
irqbalance reads the stats from /sys/class/net/ethX/statistics causing the
mutex to be locked to read the Phy half-duplex statistics registers.
The mutex was originally introduced to prevent concurrent accesses of
resources (the NVM and Phy) shared by the driver, firmware and hardware
a few years back when there was an issue with the NVM getting corrupted.
It was later split into two mutexes - one for the NVM and one for the Phy
when it was determined the NVM, unlike the Phy, should not be protected by
the software/firmware/hardware semaphore (arbitration of which is done in
part with the SWFLAG bit in the EXTCNF_CTRL register). This latter
semaphore should be sufficient to prevent resource contention of the Phy in
the driver (i.e. the mutex for Phy accesses is not needed), but to be sure
the mutex is replaced with an atomic bit flag which will warn if any
contention is possible.
Also add additional debug output to help determine when the sw/fw/hw
semaphore is owned by the firmware or hardware.

Private rx_csum flags are now duplicate of netdev->features &
NETIF_F_RXCSUM. Remove those duplicates and use the net_device_ops
ndo_set_features. This is based on the original patch submitted by

Some features currently not supported by the driver (e.g. RSS) require the
use of extended descriptors, but the driver is setup to only use legacy
descriptors in all modes except for when jumbo frames are enabled on some
parts. Convert the driver to always use extended descriptors in order to
enable the forthcoming support of these other features.
