Subject: [PATCH v2] gianfar: Fall back to software tcp/udp checksum on older controllers
To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org

As specified by errata eTSEC49 of MPC8548 and errata eTSEC12 of MPC83xx,
older revisions of gianfar controllers will be unable to calculate a TCP/UDP
packet checksum for some alignments of the appropriate FCB. This patch checks
for FCB alignment on such controllers and falls back to software checksumming
if the alignment is known to be bad.

Can we, please, proceed with this patch?
The issue is badly annoying, breaking quite a few of the MPC8548 chips.

Changes for v2:
   - Make indentation slightly more consistent.
   - Replace bizarre switch-based condition with plain boring one.
