The buffer descriptors are allocated from coherent memory, so there
is no cache maintenance needed. Only tell the compiler that the descriptors
can be modified by the hardware.

How would it?
This driver is ARM only for now (as we are using ARM MMU functions to
flush buffers) until someone gets around to properly implement generic
dma sync ops.
But even then MIPS knows about uncached memory types which is exactly
what should be returned for a dma coherent memory allocation.

Anyway it is reasonable to add 'depends on ARM' to 'config DRIVER_NET_RTL8169'
record in drivers/net/Kconfig.

Alas! We can't just add 'volatile' modifier to make pointer uncached on MIPS in general case.

Yes, will do.

This is not how it works. The memory for the buffer descriptors isn't
general malloc memory, but allocated with dma_alloc_coherent, which
makes sure the memory is uncached. This works on both ARM and MIPS.
