There are really three patches in here.
	1. Use netdev_priv (trivial)
	2. scatter/gather support
	3. TSO support

Why do you set the fragments up in reverse order? Going backwards is
usually slow on most code.

The kernel coding style is to use lower case in local variable names (Flags)
and structure elements (PacketBuffer, FlagLen).
