this is the first of three patches to fix the ethernet driver of RDC R32xx applied to svn r10754.
It adds debugs and make some procedures (r6040_*) global symbols in order to help with debugging kernel oops. Version is increased from 0.16 to 0.18 to avoid conflicts with the driver variant metioned in the X-WRT forum (call 0.17.3) Tested on a Sitecom WL-153.

This is the bcm57xx package. I have tested default vlan functions,
but I dont have the equipment to test more advanced setups. The default
vlan setup seems to be working fine. I also added the activate_gpio
parameter which will make the driver activate the switch via gpio before
probing for it.
I'm not sure which method is best for autoload. For the wrt350n, I
need the activate_gpio parameter. But its probably not a good idea
to add that to the autoload file. On a system without a bcm57xx switch,
isn't it a bad idea to mess with the gpios looking for the switch? Ideally,
wouldn't it be best to load the bcm57xx module from broadcom-diag, after
it has determined which router its on? I tried using 'request_module' from
there, but had no success. For now, I am relying on preinit to load
the bcm57xx module with activate_gpio param, after it has failed to load
switch_robo and switch_adm.

I noticed my wrt350n would not reliably reboot after entering
the reboot command. I found this code in the source for the
wrt600n. It corrects the problem, and the wrt350n reboots
reliably now.

This patch prevents switch-robo.c from attempting robo_probe on a port
that is already registered. robo_probe will adjust kernel reference counts
if it detects a switch on the port. If this patch wasn't applied, the
wrt350n would hang on reboot, waiting for the network driver reference count
to reach zero indefinitely.

This patch allows the bcm57xx module to work correctly with failsafe mode.
insmod doesn't return an error when a module loads but doesn't detect a switch.
I added the check_module function to load the module, then make sure
it doesn't just exit immediately. This allows preinit to only attempt to
load the bcm57xx module when switch-robo and switch-adm dont detect a switch.
The activate_gpio parameter to bcm57xx simply instructs the module to attempt
to activate the switch via gpio before probing for the switch.
Tested on wrt350n.
