Instead of all drivers reading pci config space to get the revision
ID, they can now use the pci_device->revision member.
This exposes some issues where drivers where reading a word or a dword
for the revision number, and adding useless error-handling around the
read. Some drivers even just read it for no purpose of all.
In devices where the revision ID is being copied over and used in what
appears to be the equivalent of hotpath, I have left the copy code
and the cached copy as not to influence the driver's performance.
Compile tested with make all{yes,mod}config on x86_64 and i386.

I happened to notice that a system with an NVidia NIC using the
forcedeth driver won't wake-on-LAN if the interface was in promiscuous
mode when you power off. By experiment, it looks like
the hardware needs to have NvRegPacketFilterFlags set to
NVREG_PFF_ALWAYS|NVREG_PFF_MYADDR (i.e., receive unicast packets to my
address) in order for WoL to work.

Many drivers had code that did kill_vid, but they weren't doing vlan
filtering. With new API the stub is unneeded unless device sets
NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_FILTER.
Bad habit: I couldn't resist fixing a couple of nearby style things
in acenic, and forcedeth.

This patch fixes the cpu irq mask define to include the timer irq.
Another flag check was setting up the timer bit in all cases so we
didn't notice the issue.

The tx timeout routine was waking the tx queue conditionally. However,
it must call it unconditionally since the dev_watchdog has halted the tx
queue before calling the timeout function.
