The pidx argument of isc_rxd_flush() indicates which is the last valid
receive descriptor to be used by the NIC. However, current code has
multiple issues:
- Intel drivers write pidx to their RDT register, which means that
NICs will only use the descriptors up to pidx-1 (modulo ring size N),
and won't actually use the one pointed by pidx. This does not break
reception, but it is anyway confusing and suboptimal (the NIC will
actually see only N-2 descriptors as available, rather than N-1).
Other drivers (if_vmx, if_bnxt, if_mgb) adhere to this semantic).
- The semantic used by Intel (RDT is one descriptor past the last
valid one) is used by most (if not all) NICs, and it is also used
on the TX side (also in iflib). Since iflib is not currently
using this semantic for RX, it must decrement fl->ifl_pidx
(modulo N) before calling isc_rxd_flush(), and then the
per-driver callback implementation must increment the index
again (to match the real semantic). This is confusing and suboptimal.
- The iflib refill function is also called at initialization.
However, in case the ring size is smaller than 128 (e.g. if_mgb),
the refill function will actually prepare all the receive
descriptors (N), without leaving one unused, as most of NICs assume
(e.g. to avoid RDT to overrun RDH). I can speculate that the code
looks like this right now because this issue showed up during
testing (e.g. with if_mgb), and it was easy to workaround by
decrementing pidx before isc_rxd_flush().
The goal of this change is to simplify the code (removing a bunch
of instructions from the RX fast path), and to make the semantic of
isc_rxd_flush() consistent across drivers. To achieve this, we:
- change the semantics of the pidx argument to the usual one (that
is the index one past the last valid one), so that both iflib and
drivers avoid the decrement/increment dance.
- fix the initialization code to prepare at most N-1 descriptors.

Previously we were relying on ether_ifattach() to set if_mtu, but
max_frame_size is initialized earlier. This fixes a regression
introduced by r250375.

The only output from fsck that should go to stderr is the usage message.
if setup() fails then exit with EEXIT rather than 0.

Implement support for an eSDHC controller found in NXP QorIQ Layerscape SoCs.
This driver has been tested with NXP LS1046A and LX2160A (Honeycomb board),
which is incompatible with the existing sdhci_fsl driver (aiming at older
chips from this family). As such, it is not intended as replacement for
the old driver, but rather serves as an improved alternative for SoCs that
support it.
It comes with support for both PIO and Single DMA modes and samples the
clock from the extres clk API.

In the util-linux version of script, it will always exit with succes.
Except when run with -e, in which case it will have the exit value of
the child. BSD Script already uses the child's exit value for its exit
value. Some config and other helper scripts depend on being able to
specify -e. Accept it for compatibility since we'll already to the
right thing, but otherwise we ignore it.

It's no longer unusual to be able to build a release with a single
command, so drop "actually" that hints at a surprise. Also just use
"network install directory" instead of referencing FTP; it's more
likely to be HTTP now.

The caller-supplied pointer is unconditionally dereferenced at the
beginning of the function, so there is no point in comparing it with
NULL thereafter.
