Please indent it like the above: with two tabs. This is
to keep things consistent.

The switch construction is quite bizarre. ;-) Why not

if (gfar_has_errata() && (ulong)fcb % 0x20 > 18) {
	csum_help();
} else {
	lstatus |=...
	tx_csum();
}

?

You need to check the generated code, but I think you need:

    if (unlikely(gfar_has_errata(priv, GFAR_ERRATA_12))
	     && unlikely(((unsigned long)fcb % 0x20) > 0x18))

ie unlikely() around both the primitive comparisons.

Is the first condition actually unlikely?  If you've got affected
hardware, you'll hit it every time.

If packets with the problematic alignment are rare, seems like it'd be
better to check that first.

In cases like this gfar_has_errata() case, better to leave it's
likelyhood unmarked.

And yes, since it's cheaper, checking the alignment should be done
first.

[PATCH v2] gianfar: Fall back to software tcp/udp checksum on older controllers

[Alex Dubov]

As specified by errata eTSEC49 of MPC8548 and errata eTSEC12 of MPC83xx,
older revisions of gianfar controllers will be unable to calculate a TCP/UDP
packet checksum for some alignments of the appropriate FCB. This patch checks
for FCB alignment on such controllers and falls back to software checksumming
if the alignment is known to be bad.

Can we, please, proceed with this patch?
The issue is badly annoying, breaking quite a few of the MPC8548 chips.

Changes for v2:
   - Make indentation slightly more consistent.
   - Replace bizarre switch-based condition with plain boring one.

[PATCH v2] gianfar: Fall back to software tcp/udp checksum on older controllers

[Alex Dubov]

As specified by errata eTSEC49 of MPC8548 and errata eTSEC12 of MPC83xx,
older revisions of gianfar controllers will be unable to calculate a TCP/UDP
packet checksum for some alignments of the appropriate FCB. This patch checks
for FCB alignment on such controllers and falls back to software checksumming
if the alignment is known to be bad.

Can we, please, proceed with this patch?
The issue is badly annoying, breaking quite a few of the MPC8548 chips.

Changes for v2:
   - Make indentation slightly more consistent.
   - Replace bizarre switch-based condition with plain boring one.
