Applied with a "but"... This patch still contains some errors WRT 8139
hardware and the RX path. But I'm comfortable with nailing those
problems down during public testing of net-drivers-2.5-exp.
Hirofumi, Stephen, and others, please test, particularly packet floods
with (a) tiny packets and (b) huge packets. Ditto Jes, if you've still
got hardware, and are interested in DoS fixes in 8139too.
