tg3: Preserve DASH connectivity when WOL enabled
DASH firmware runs on the APE side of the chip, but it requires a few MAC
to be programmed correctly.
When WOL is enabled and management firmware is disabled, incoming
packets are evaluated and discarded at the chip's rule processor.
When management firmware is enabled, the hardware must be informed that
there are agents further up the stack that still use the incoming
frames. Normally management firmware will configure the MAC correctly
on its own, but there can be cases where the setting could get clobbered
by the driver. The first hunk of this patch preserves this setting.
The second hunk of this patch wipes out the driver present signature of
the APE memory space. By doing so, the DASH firmware can assume
driver absent behavior.

airo: Kill directly reference of netdev->priv
We have some reasons to kill netdev->priv:
1. netdev->priv is equal to netdev_priv().
2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev->priv's offset, obviously
netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev->priv.
But we cann't kill netdev->priv, because so many drivers reference to it
directly.
OK, becasue Dave S. Miller said, "every direct netdev->priv usage is a bug",
and I want to kill netdev->priv later, I decided to convert all the direct
reference of netdev->priv first.
In this driver, I don't simply use netdev_priv() to replace netdev->priv.
The reason is:
Pointer netdev->priv was changed in this driver, but it shouldn't.
Because the memory was allocated when alloc_netdev() and netdev->priv
should always point to that memory.
So I use netdev->ml_priv to replace netdev->priv.
After replacing, both ai and ai->wifidev->ml_priv point to the same memory.
