[PATCH 0/8] gianfar: Add support for hibernation

Hi all,

Here are few patches that add support for hibernation for gianfar
driver.

Technically, we could just do gfar_close() and then gfar_enet_open()
sequence to restore gianfar functionality after hibernation, but
close/open does so many unneeded things (e.g. BDs buffers freeing and
allocation, IRQ freeing and requesting), that I felt it would be much
better to cleanup and refactor some code to make the hibernation [and
not only hibernation] code a little bit prettier.

Patches on the way...

Thanks,
