3c589 PCMCIA on A1200 - possible resolution to PR port-amiga/31134

[Martin Åberg <martin%fripost.org@localhost>]

Hello,

I have made an effort to get the 3Com 3C589 EtherLink III PCMCIA 
Ethernet card going in NetBSD 9.0 on Amiga A1200.

The results look promising. However, since I don't have access to other 
PCMCIA cards, one concern is that the patch could break support for 
other PCMCIA cards with 8-bit and 16-bit I/O.

Below is some background, an example and the patch.

----
The NetBSD Amiga PCMCIA bus driver, gayle_pcmcia.c, appears to be
working well with 8-bit PCMCIA I/O accesses but not 16-bit I/O accesses. 
This
patch enables support for 16-bit I/O accesses which allows for use of 
the 3Com
3C589 EtherLink III Ethernet controller.


Summary:
Mapping of motherboard (CPU) bus accesses to the PCMCIA bus is handled 
by the
Gayle chip. The chip and how it interfaces with the Amiga computer is 
not very
well docuemented.

For 8-bit PCMCIA I/O accesses, PCMCIA address line A0 is controlled by 
CPU A16
and is handled correctly by the current gayle_pcmcia.c.

For 16-bit PCMCIA I/O accesses, no address translation is needed on the CPU
side. However, the word data (16-bit) bus between the CPU bus and the PCMCIA
bus is byte swapped. This patch accounts for the byte-swapping in software.


How it was tested:
The patch has been tested with NetBSD 9.0 on an Amiga A1200 and the 3Com 
3C689
PCMCIA card. Two different processor boards were been used: Blizzard 1230 IV
and Blizzard 1260.

Others:
- Unplugging the card and inserting it again works.
- Not tested with other PCMCIA cards.
- Closes PR port-amiga/31134


Patch:
(Yes, it changes only a single source code line.)
