This makes sure that one cannot request a 99Mbps full-duplex and get a
100Mbps half-duplex configuration in return due to the way the
speed/duplex parameters are handled internally.

This updates the network drivers so that they don't access the
ethtool_cmd::speed field directly, but use ethtool_cmd_speed()
instead.
For most of the drivers, these changes are purely cosmetic and don't
fix any problem, such as for those 1GbE/10GbE drivers that indirectly
call their own ethtool get_settings()/mii_ethtool_gset(). The changes
are meant to enforce code consistency and provide robustness with
future larger throughputs, at the expense of a few CPU cycles for each
ethtool operation.
All drivers compiled with make allyesconfig ion x86_64 have been
updated.

This makes sure the ethtool's set_settings() callback of network
drivers don't ignore the 16 most significant bits when ethtool calls
their set_settings().

Needed to update to apply fixes for which the old branch was too
outdated.
Some drivers are using skb_transport_offset(skb) instead of skb->csum_start
for NETIF_F_HW_CSUM offload. This does not matter now, but if someone
implements checksumming of encapsulated packets then this will break silently.
TSO output paths are left as they are, since they are for IP+TCP only
(might be worth converting though).

Dean noticed that 'err' wasn't being set when the "goto err_dma"
statement is executed in the following hunk from the commit. It's value
will be zero as a result of a successful call to e1000_init_hw_struct().
This patch changes the error condition to be correctly propagated.

VMWare reports that the e1000 driver has a bug when bringing down the
interface, such that interrupts are not disabled in the hardware but the
driver stops reporting that it consumed the interrupt.
The fix is to set the driver's "down" flag later in the routine,
after all the timers and such have exited, preventing the interrupt
handler from being called and exiting early without handling the
interrupt.

Many (but not all) drivers check to see whether there is a vlan
group configured before using a tag stored in the skb. There's
not much point in this check since it just throws away data that
should only be present in the expected circumstances. However,
it will soon be legal and expected to get a vlan tag when no
vlan group is configured, so remove this check from all drivers
to avoid dropping the tags.

VLAN_GROUP_ARRAY_LEN is simply the number of possible vlan VIDs.
Since vlan groups will soon be more of an implementation detail
for vlan devices, rename the constant to be descriptive of its
actual purpose.

Net drivers in general have an issue where timers fired
by mod_timer or work threads with schedule_work are running
outside of the rtnl_lock.
With no other lock protection these routines are vulnerable
to races with driver unload or reset paths.
The longer term solution to this might be a redesign with
safer locks being taken in the driver to guarantee no
reentrance, but for now a safe and effective fix is
to take the rtnl_lock in these routines.
