The motivation for this was misguided. It turns out tuning the NAPI weight could be useful for testing purposes. Therefore reverting.

This reverts commit 13e5e47369.
This commit causes a severe regression in LAN->WAN routing performance
for several devices. This appears to be caused by the extra requirement
to validate the SKB checksum early in the rx path, which the ethernet
hardware does not do

This add support for kernel 4.9 to the ar71xx target.
It was compile tested with the generic, NAND and mikrotik subtarget.
Multiple members of the community tested it on their boards and did not
report any major problem so far.
Especially the NAND part received some changes to adapt to the new
kernel APIs. The serial driver hack used for the Arduino Yun was not
ported because the kernel changed there a lot.

On a TL-WN710N, this patch increases iperf performance from ~92.5 to ~93.5 mbps. Keep in mind the WN710N is a 100mbps device. I expect greater numbers from gigabit devices.

I don't see that we're in an atomic context so there's no need to
busy-wait. Therefore replace the delay with sleep calls.
See also Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt. It states:
"In general, use of mdelay is discouraged and code should
be refactored to allow for the use of msleep."

The r39147 commit introduces a regression: at lease on some routers
with ar8216 switch large packets get lost if 802.1q tagged port is
used on the interface connected to the aforementioned switch.
The r39147 changes code in the way so interface is set to accept
packets no longer than max ethernet frame length for a given mtu.
Unfortunately ar8216 has a feature: it sends two additional bytes
as a packet header and those this header needs to be added to the
max frame length. Otherwise long enough packets get lost.
The problem only manuifests itself if interface is used in vlan
tagged mode. If interface is untagged then ar8216's header fits
into space used by 802.1q tag and not packets are lost.
Include two additional bytes in the max frame length calculation
to fix the issue.
This patch is tested and works with Trendnet TEW-632BRP.

The currently used bitmask of the maximum frame length field
is wrong for both models. On AR724x/AR933x the largest frame
size is 2047 bytes, on the AR934x it is 16383 bytes.
Make the MTU setup code model specific, and use the correct
bitmask for both models. Also change the value to the maximum.

Set the MAX_FRAME_LEN register to zero in ag71xx_hw_init()
and write the correct value into that from the ag71xx_open()
and ag71xx_fast_reset() functions.
Also recalculate the RX buffer size based on the actual
maximum frame length value to optimize memory allocation.
Additionaly, disallow to change the MTU value while the
interface it running.

The currently used bitmask is not correct for all SoCs.
Introduce a new field in struct ag71xx and store the
bitmask in that. Use the current value for now, it will
be adjusted for each SoCs in further patches.
Aslo use the new field directly in the ag71xx_rx_packets
and ag71xx_hard_start_xmit() functions and remove the
ag71xx_desc_pktlen() helper.

Currently, the AG71XX_RX_PKT_SIZE value limits the received
frame size to 1514/1516 bytes with/without a VLAN header
respectively. However the hardware limit is controlled by
the value the AG71XX_REG_MAC_MFL register which contains
the value of the max_frame_len field.
Compute the RX buffer size from the max_frame_len field
to get rid of the 1514/1516 byte limitation. Also remove
the unused AG71XX_RX_PKT_SIZE definition.
