[PATCH 0/3] Some misc fixes and optimization for the mpipe driver

[Liming Sun <lsun@ezchip.com>]

This patch serie includes some fixes/enhancements to the mpipe driver.
1. Support native build on the TileGx platform;
   Previously only cross build was supported.

2. Optimize the mpipe buffer return mechanism by introducing a return
   pending counter and doing HW buffer return if pssible.

3. Move the mpipe link initialization to an earlier place to support
   link management APIs.

Liming Sun (3):
  driver/net/mpipe: support native build on tilegx platform.
  driver/net/mpipe: optimize mpipe buffer return mechanism.
  driver/net/mpipe: fix a mpipe link initialization ordering issue
