We want exclusive access to the network device, both for performance
reasons and because we perform operations such as EAPoL that affect
the entire link. We currently drive the network card via either a
native hardware driver or via the SNP or NII/UNDI interfaces, both of
which grant us this exclusive access.
Add an alternative driver that drives the network card non-exclusively
via the EFI_MANAGED_NETWORK_PROTOCOL interface. This can function as
a fallback for situations where neither SNP nor NII/UNDI interfaces
are functional, and also opens up the possibility of non-destructively
installing a temporary network device over which to download the
autoexec.ipxe script.

The Mellanox/Nvidia UEFI driver is built from the same codebase as the
iPXE driver, and appears to contain the bug that was fixed in commit
c11734e ("[golan] Use ETH_HLEN for inline header size"). This results
in identical failures when using the SNP or NII interface (via
e.g. snponly.efi) to drive a Mellanox card while EAPoL is enabled.
Work around the underlying UEFI driver bug by padding transmit I/O
buffers to the minimum Ethernet frame length before passing them to
the underlying driver's transmit function.
This padding is not technically necessary, since almost all modern
hardware will insert transmit padding as necessary (and where the
hardware does not support doing so, the underlying UEFI driver is
responsible for adding any necessary padding). However, it is
guaranteed to be harmless (other than a miniscule performance impact):
the Ethernet specification requires zero padding up to the minimum
frame length for packets that are transmitted onto the wire, and so
the receiver will see the same packet whether or not we manually
insert this padding in software.
The additional padding causes the underlying Mellanox driver to avoid
its faulty code path, since it will never be asked to transmit a very
short packet.

Some SNP implementations (observed with a wifi adapter in a Dell
Latitude 3440 laptop) seem to require additional space in the
allocated receive buffers, otherwise full-length packets will be
silently dropped.
The EDK2 MnpDxe driver happens to allocate an additional 8 bytes of
padding (4 for a VLAN tag, 4 for the Ethernet frame checksum). Match
this behaviour since drivers are very likely to have been tested
against MnpDxe.

Some network device drivers use the trivial netdev_priv() helper
function while others use the netdev->priv pointer directly.
Standardise on direct use of netdev->priv, in order to free up the
function name netdev_priv() for reuse.

On some systems (observed with the Thunderbolt ports on a ThinkPad X1
Extreme Gen3 and a ThinkPad P53), if the IOMMU is enabled then the
system firmware will install an ExitBootServices notification event
that disables bus mastering on the Thunderbolt xHCI controller and all
PCI bridges, and destroys any extant IOMMU mappings. This leaves the
xHCI controller unable to perform any DMA operations.
As described in commit 236299b ("[xhci] Avoid DMA during shutdown if
firmware has disabled bus mastering"), any subsequent DMA operation
attempted by the xHCI controller will end up completing after the
operating system kernel has reenabled bus mastering, resulting in a
DMA operation to an area of memory that the hardware is no longer
permitted to access and, on Windows with the Driver Verifier enabled,
a STOP 0xE6 (DRIVER_VERIFIER_DMA_VIOLATION).
That commit avoids triggering any DMA attempts during the shutdown of
the xHCI controller itself. However, this is not a complete solution
since any attached and opened USB device (e.g. a USB NIC) may
asynchronously trigger DMA attempts that happen to occur after bus
mastering has been disabled but before we reset the xHCI controller.
Avoid this problem by installing our own ExitBootServices notification
event at TPL_NOTIFY, thereby causing it to be invoked before the
firmware's own ExitBootServices notification event that disables bus
mastering.
This unsurprisingly causes the shutdown hook itself to be invoked at
TPL_NOTIFY, which causes a fatal error when later code attempts to
raise the TPL to TPL_CALLBACK (which is a lower TPL). Work around
this problem by redefining the "internal" iPXE TPL to be variable, and
set this internal TPL to TPL_NOTIFY when the shutdown hook is invoked.
Avoid calling into an underlying SNP protocol instance from within our
shutdown hook at TPL_NOTIFY, since the underlying SNP driver may
attempt to raise the TPL to TPL_CALLBACK (which would cause a fatal
error). Failing to shut down the underlying SNP device is safe to do
since the underlying device must, in any case, have installed its own
ExitBootServices hook if any shutdown actions are required.

Some devices (observed with a Getac RX10 tablet and docking station
containing an embedded AX88179 USB NIC) seem to be capable of
detecting link state only during the call to Initialize(), and will
occasionally erroneously report that the link is down for the first
few such calls.
Work around these devices by retrying the Initialize() call multiple
times, terminating early if a link is detected. The eventual absence
of a link is treated as a non-fatal error, since it is entirely
possible that the link really is down.

Currently, if the SNP driver for whatever reason fails to enable
receive filters for multicast frames, it falls back to enabling just
unicast and broadcast filters. This breaks some IPv6 functionality as
the network card does not respond to neighbour solicitation requests.
Some cards refuse to enable EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_RECEIVE_MULTICAST, but
do support enabling EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_RECEIVE_PROMISCUOUS_MULTICAST,
so try it before falling back to just unicast+broadcast.

The UEFI specification requires the EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL
GetStatus() method to set TxBuf to NULL if there are no transmit
buffers to recycle.
Some implementations (observed with Lan9118Dxe in EDK2) fill in TxBuf
only when there is a transmit buffer to recycle, which leads to large
numbers of "spurious TX completion" errors.
Work around this problem by initialising TxBuf to NULL before calling
the GetStatus() method.

We currently require information about the underlying PCI device to
populate the snpnet device's name and description. If the underlying
device is not a PCI device, this will fail and prevent the device from
being registered.
Fix by falling back to populating the device description with
information based on the EFI handle, if no PCI device information is
available.

The behavior observed in the Apple EFI (1.10) RecieveFilters() call
is:
- failure if any of the PROMISCUOUS or MULTICAST filters are
included
- success if only UNICAST is included, however the result is
UNICAST|BROADCAST
- success if only UNICAST and BROADCAST are included
- if UNICAST, or UNICAST|BROADCAST are used, but the previous call
tried (and failed) to set UNICAST|BROADCAST|MULTICAST, then the
result is UNICAST|BROADCAST|MULTICAST
Work around this apparently broken SNP implementation by trying
RecieveFilterMask, then falling back to UNICAST|BROADCAST|MULTICAST,
then UNICAST|BROADCAST, and finally UNICAST.

Some EFI 1.10 systems (observed on an Apple iMac) do not allow us to
open the device path protocol with an attribute of
EFI_OPEN_PROTOCOL_BY_DRIVER and so we cannot maintain a safe,
long-lived pointer to the device path. Work around this by instead
opening the device path protocol with an attribute of
EFI_OPEN_PROTOCOL_GET_PROTOCOL whenever we need to use it.

Using efi_devpath_text() is marginally more efficient if we already
have the device path protocol available, but the mild increase in
efficiency is not worth compromising the clarity of the pattern:
DBGC ( device, "THING %p %s ...", device, efi_handle_name ( device ) );

Add a new network driver that consumes the EFI Simple Network
Protocol. Also add a bus driver that can find the Simple Network
Protocol that iPXE was loaded from; the resulting behavior is similar
