Current code that handles Tx buffer desciprtor ring scanning employs the
following algorithm:
1. Restore current buffer descriptor pointer from TBPTRn
2. Process current descriptor
3. If current descriptor has BD_WRAP flag set set current
descriptor pointer to start of the descriptor ring
4. If current descriptor points to start of the ring exit the
loop, otherwise increment current descriptor pointer and go
to #2
5. Store current descriptor in TBPTRn
The way the code is implemented results in buffer descriptor ring being
scanned starting at offset/descriptor #0. While covering 99% of the
cases, this algorithm becomes problematic for a number of edge cases.
Consider the following scenario: guest OS driver initializes descriptor
ring to N individual descriptors and starts sending data out. Depending
on the volume of traffic and probably guest OS driver implementation it
is possible that an edge case where a packet, spread across 2
descriptors is placed in descriptors N - 1 and 0 in that order(it is
easy to imagine similar examples involving more than 2 descriptors).
What happens then is aforementioned algorithm starts at descriptor 0,
sees a descriptor marked as BD_LAST, which it happily sends out as a
separate packet(very much malformed at this point) then the iteration
continues and the first part of the original packet is tacked to the
next transmission which ends up being bogus as well.
This behvaiour can be pretty reliably observed when scp'ing data from a
guest OS via TAP interface for files larger than 160K (every time for
700K+).
This patch changes the scanning algorithm to do the following:
1. Restore "current" buffer descriptor pointer from
TBPTRn
2. If "current" descriptor does not have BD_TX_READY set, goto #6
3. Process current descriptor
4. If "current" descriptor has BD_WRAP flag set "current"
descriptor pointer to start of the descriptor ring otherwise
set increment "current" by the size of one descriptor
5. Goto #1
6. Save "current" buffer descriptor in TBPTRn
This way we preserve the information about which descriptor was
processed last and always start where we left off avoiding the original
problem. On top of that, judging by the following excerpt from
MPC8548ERM (p. 14-48):
"... When the end of the TxBD ring is reached, eTSEC initializes TBPTRn
to the value in the corresponding TBASEn. The TBPTR register is
internally written by the eTSEC’s DMA controller during
transmission. The pointer increments by eight (bytes) each time a
descriptor is closed successfully by the eTSEC..."
revised algorithm might also a more correct way of emulating this aspect
of eTSEC peripheral.

Depending on QEMU network setup it is possible for us to receive a
complete Ethernet packet that is less 64 bytes long. One such example is
when QEMU is configured to use a standalone TAP device (not set to be a
part of any bridge) receives and ARP packet. In cases like that we need
to add more than just 4-bytes of CRC padding and ensure that our payload
is at least 60 bytes long, such that, when combined with CRC padding
bytes the resulting size is at least 802.3 minimum MTU bytes
long (64). Failing to do that results in code in etsec_walk_rx_ring()
setting BD_RX_SH which, in turn, makes corresponding Linux driver of
emulated host to reject buffer as a runt packet

This is a mostly-mechanical conversion that creates a new flat
union 'Netdev' QAPI type that covers all the branches of the
former 'NetClientOptions' simple union, where the branches are
now listed in a new 'NetClientDriver' enum rather than generated
from the simple union. The existence of a flat union has no
change to the command line syntax accepted for new code, and
will make it possible for a future patch to switch the QMP
command to parse a boxed union for no change to valid QMP; but
it does have some ripple effect on the C code when dealing with
the new types.
While making the conversion, note that the 'NetLegacy' type
remains unchanged: it applies only to legacy command line options,
and will not be ported to QMP, so it should remain a wrapper
around a simple union; to avoid confusion, the type named
'NetClientOptions' is now gone, and we introduce 'NetLegacyOptions'
in its place. Then, in the C code, we convert from NetLegacy to
Netdev as soon as possible, so that the bulk of the net stack
only has to deal with one QAPI type, not two. Note that since
the old legacy code always rejected 'hubport', we can just omit
that branch from the new 'NetLegacyOptions' simple union.

All NICs have a cleanup function that, in most cases, zeroes the pointer
to the NICState. In some cases, it frees data belonging to the NIC.
However, this function is never called except when exiting from QEMU.
It is not necessary to NULL pointers and free data here; the right place
to do that would be in the device's unrealize function, after calling
qemu_del_nic. Zeroing the NIC multiple times is also wrong for multiqueue
devices.
This cleanup function gets in the way of making the NetClientStates for
the NIC hold an object_ref reference to the object, so get rid of it.
