On i350 the datasheet contradicts itself in stating that the default
value of RXDCTL.ENABLE for queue zero is both set (according to the
"Receive Initialization" section) and unset (according to the "Receive
Descriptor Control - RXDCTL" section). Empirical evidence suggests
that the default value is unset.
Explicitly enable both transmit and receive queues to avoid any
ambiguity.

[intel] Refill receive ring only after enabling receiver
On 82576 (and probably others), the datasheet states that "the tail
register of the queue (RDT[n]) should not be bumped until the queue is
enabled". There is some confusion over exactly what constitutes
"enabled": the initialisation blurb says that we should "poll the
RXDCTL register until the ENABLE bit is set", while the description
for the RXDCTL register says that the ENABLE bit is set by default
(for queue zero). Empirical evidence suggests that the ENABLE bit
reads as set immediately after writing to RCTL.EN, and so polling is
not necessary.

[realtek] Support RTL8139 cards within generic Realtek driver
RTL8139C+ cards use essentially the same datapath as RTL8169, which is
zerocopy and 64-bit capable. Older RTL8139 cards use a single receive
ring buffer rather than a descriptor ring, but still share substantial
amounts of functionality with RTL8169.
Include support for RTL8139 cards within the generic Realtek driver,
since there is no way to differentiate between RTL8139 and RTL8139C+
cards based on the PCI IDs alone.
Many thanks to all the people who worked on the rtl8139 driver over
the years.

The link state is currently set at probe time, and updated only when
the device is polled. This results in the user seeing a misleading
stale "Link: down" message, if autonegotiation did not complete within
the short timespan of the probe routine.
Fix by updating the link state when the device is opened, so that the
message that ends up being displayed to the user reflects the real
link state at device open time.

iPXE provides no support for manually configuring the link speed.

The RS bit is used to instruct the NIC to update the TX descriptor
status byte. The RPS bit is used to instruct the NIC to defer this
update until after the packet has been transmitted on the wire (rather
than merely read into the transmit FIFO).
The driver currently sets RPS but not RS. Some e1000 models seem to
interpret this as implying that the status byte should be updated;
some don't. On the ones that don't, we never see any TX completions
and so rapidly run out of TX buffers.
Fix by setting the RS bit in the TX descriptor. (We don't care about
when the packet reaches the wire, so don't bother setting the RPS
bit.)

[forcedeth] Never change the NVREG_TRANSMITPOLL_MAC_ADDR_REV flag
iPXE operates the forcedeth NIC in promiscuous mode, and never changes

[forcedeth] Remove software unicast MAC address filter
The forcedeth driver currently implements unicast MAC address
filtering in software. This is almost invariably the wrong thing to
do (since the network stack must already be able to cope with unwanted
packets) and it breaks FCoE (which requires the card to operate in
promiscuous mode).
Also, the implementation is buggy: is_local_ether_addr() is used to
check for a locally-assigned Ethernet address (not to check for a
unicast address), and the current link-layer address is in
netdev->ll_addr, not netdev->hw_addr.
Fix by removing this code.
