Also rename a few counters appropritely and delete 2 counters that are not
implemented in HW.
vlan_mismatch_drops does not exist in BE3 and is accounted for in
address_mismatch_drops. Do the same thing for BE2 and Lancer.

The X520 family of network devices, with the 82599 chip, support a
small number of Intel-verified SFP+ modules on their NICs. To maintain
stability and quality, the current devices restrict untested 3rd party
SFP+ modules.
This patch introduces a module parameter for ixgbe to allow these untested
modules at the user's peril. It also includes a warning to the syslog
alerting users that the modules aren't supported, and results may
vary.

alloc_etherdev has a generic OOM/unable to alloc message.
Remove the duplicative messages after alloc_etherdev calls.

alloc failures use dump_stack so emitting an additional
out-of-memory message is an unnecessary duplication.
Remove the allocation failure messages.

- atomic bit operations are globally visible
- pending status is always cleared before execution
- scheduled works are either idempotent or only required to happen once
after a series of originating events, say link events for instance

This code is clearly unused, since it has a #error right
in it. Given the vintage of sun3 hardware, it is probably
safe to assume that there is little interest in adding new
functionality to the driver now, so just delete the unused
block of code.

The reorganization of the driver layout in drivers/net
left behind some stale paths in comments and in Kconfig
help text. Bring them up to date. No actual change to
any code takes place here.

This function returns the page offset of the buffer, which can be
calculated based on either its DMA address or its virtual address. It
used to use the virtual address and we would cast that to unsigned
long, as anything smaller would result in a compiler warning. Now
that it's using the DMA address we should use unsigned int, matching
the return type. It is also unnecessary to use __force.
