Hi David,

some minor nits.

Could this driver be split into more files. 8k lines per file
is quite a lot. Although GCC might optimize it best this way :-)

Ingo,

Some r info on  Neptune HW  to explains some of the constants ...

why 4? (magic number)
The MAC HW has 4 SERDES lanes. Need to configure each lane

+{
+       int mtu = np->dev->mtu;
+
+       rp->max_burst = mtu + 32;
+       if (rp->max_burst > 4096)
+               rp->max_burst = 4096;

Why 32 and 4096? (Magic values)
These values were recommended by the HW designers for fair utilization of DRR feature among TX/RX rings.

... ok, I stop here, since this drivers is damn big :-)
