[PATCH 00/37] atl1c: update hardware settings

[xiong]

This update contains a serial of patches,
most of them are hardware settings related.
register definitions are refined for each patch.

The patches are for following main purpose:
1. improve the PCI Express Interface stability.
2. improve the PHY Link stability.
3. improve the power consumption, like ASPM and PHY Hibernation.
4. imporve the throughput, get same result with alx driver as shown
   in http://linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/networking/alx

Following NICs are tested:
AR8131/AR8132/AR8151A/AR8152A/AR8152B

These patches have addressed all sparse and checkpatch warnings.
