netdev: Eliminate duplicate barriers on weakly-ordered archs

Code includes wmb() followed by writel() in multiple places. writel()
already has a barrier on some architectures like arm64.

This ends up CPU observing two barriers back to back before executing the
register write.

Since code already has an explicit barrier call, changing writel() to
writel_relaxed().

I did a regex search for wmb() followed by writel() in each drivers
directory.
I scrubbed the ones I care about in this series.

I considered "ease of change", "popular usage" and "performance critical
path" as the determining criteria for my filtering.

We used relaxed API heavily on ARM for a long time but
it did not exist on other architectures. For this reason, relaxed
architectures have been paying double penalty in order to use the common
drivers.

Now that relaxed API is present on all architectures, we can go and scrub
all drivers to see what needs to change and what can remain.

We start with mostly used ones and hope to increase the coverage over time.
It will take a while to cover all drivers.

Feel free to apply patches individually.

Changes since v6:
- bring back amazon ena and add mmiowb, remove
  ena_com_write_sq_doorbell_rel().
- remove extra mmiowb in bnx2x
- correct spelling mistake in  bnx2x: Replace doorbell barrier() with wmb()

Create a new wrapper function with relaxed write operator. Use the new
wrapper when a write is following a barrier().

writel_relaxed() and adding mmiowb() for ordering protection.

barrier() doesn't guarantee memory writes to be observed by the hardware on
all architectures. barrier() only tells compiler not to move this code
with respect to other read/writes.

If memory write needs to be observed by the HW, wmb() is the right choice.

sh_eth: unify the SoC feature checks

Here's a set of 5 patches against DaveM's 'net-next.git' repo.

The Ether driver sometimes uses the bit fields in 'struct sh_eth_cpu_data'
to check which Ether registers exist in a certain SoC and sometimes it uses
sh_eth_is_{gether|rz_fast_ether}() which basically compares 2 pointers (1 of
them being constant) -- the latter is definitely not a strongest feature of
the RISC CPUs (be it SH or ARM), so I decided to get rid of this type of
the feature checks in favour of the bit fields (I've also made use of a
32-bit value and method pointer where appropriate)...

[1/5] sh_eth: add sh_eth_cpu_data::soft_reset() method
[2/5] sh_eth: add sh_eth_cpu_data::edtrr_trns value
[3/5] sh_eth: add sh_eth_cpu_data::xdfar_rw flag
[4/5] sh_eth: add sh_eth_cpu_data::no_tx_cntr flag
[5/5] sh_eth: add sh_eth_cpu_data::cexcr flag

GEther controllers have CERCR/CEECR instead of CNDCR on the others.
Currently we are calling sh_eth_is_gether() in order to check for this,
however it would be simpler  to check the new 'cexcr' bitfield in the
'struct sh_eth_cpu_data';  then we'd be able to remove sh_eth_is_gether()
as there would be no callers left...

RZ/A1H (R7S72100) Ether controller doesn't  seem to have the TX counter
registers like TROCR/CDCR/LCCR (or at least they are still undocumented
like some TSU registers), so we bail out of sh_eth_get_stats() early in
this case.  Currently we are calling sh_eth_is_rz_fast_ether() in order
to check for this, but it would be simpler to check the new 'no_tx_cntrs'
bitfield in the 'struct sh_eth_cpu_data'; then we'd be able  to remove

The GEther-like controllers have writeable RDFAR/TDFAR, on the others
they are read-only or just absent (on R-Car). Currently we are calling

can be written to, however it would be simpler to check the new 'xdfar_rw'

sh_eth_get_edtrr_trns() returns the value to be written to EDTRR in order
to start TX DMA -- this value is different between the GEther-like and
the other controllers. We can replace this function (and thus get rid of
the calls to sh_eth_is_{gether|rz_fast_ether}() by it) with a new field
'edtrr_trns' in the 'struct sh_eth_cpu_data'.

sh_eth_reset() performs a software reset which is implemented in a
completely different way for the GEther-like controllers vs the other
controllers due to a different layout of EDMR (and other factors) --
it therefore makes sense to convert this function to a mandatory
sh_eth_cpu_data::soft_reset() method and thus get rid of the runtime
controller type check via sh_eth_is_{gether|rz_fast_ether}().
