    [TG3]: Speed up SRAM access · 100c4673

    Speed up SRAM read and write functions if possible by using MMIO
    instead of config. cycles. With this change, the post reset signature
    done at the end of D3 power change must now be moved before the D3
    power change.
    
    IBM reported a problem on powerpc blades during ethtool self test
    that was caused by the memory test taking excessively long. Config.
    cycles are very slow on powerpc and the memory test can take more
    than 10 seconds to complete using config. cycles. As a result, NETDEV
    WATCHDOG can be triggered during self test and the chip can end up in
    a funny state.
