ethernet: unify return value of .ndo_set_mac_address if address is invalid
Unify return value of .ndo_set_mac_address if the given address
isn't valid. Return -EADDRNOTAVAIL as eth_mac_addr() already does
if is_valid_ether_addr() fails.

bnx2: Add missing memory barrier in bnx2_start_xmit()
Sync DMA descriptor before hitting the TX mailbox for weak memory model
CPUs.
There has been discussions several years ago about this. Some believe
that writel() should guarantee ordering. Others want explicit barriers
if necessary. Today writel() does not have the ordering guarantee and
many other drivers use explicit barriers.

bnx2: Update driver to use new mips firmware.
bnx2-mips-06-6.2.3 and bnx2-mips-09-6.2.1.b
New firmware fixes iSCSI problems with some LeftHand targets that don't
set TTT=0xffffffff for Data-In according to spec. Firmware generates
exception warnings for this condition and becomes very slow. This is
fixed by suppressing these warnings when using default error mask.

bnx2: switch to build_skb() infrastructure
This is very similar to bnx2x conversion, but bnx2 only requires 16bytes
alignement at start of the received frame to store its l2_fhdr, so goal
was not to reduce skb truesize (in fact it should not change after this
patch)
Using build_skb() reduces cache line misses in the driver, since we
use cache hot skb instead of cold ones. Number of in-flight sk_buff
structures is lower, they are more likely recycled in SLUB caches
while still hot.

The firmware is cached during the first successful call to open() and
released once the network device is unregistered. The driver uses the
cached firmware between open() and unregister_netdev().
