This is very similar to bnx2x conversion, but bnx2 only requires 16bytes
alignement at start of the received frame to store its l2_fhdr, so goal
was not to reduce skb truesize (in fact it should not change after this
patch)
Using build_skb() reduces cache line misses in the driver, since we
use cache hot skb instead of cold ones. Number of in-flight sk_buff
structures is lower, they are more likely recycled in SLUB caches
while still hot.

Translating between ethtool advertisement settings and MII
advertisements are common operations for ethernet drivers. This patch
adds a set of helper functions that implements the conversion. The
patch then modifies a couple of the drivers to use the new functions.

Per the mention made by Ben Hutchings that strlcpy is now the preferred
string copy routine for a .get_drvinfo routine, do a bit of floor
sweeping and convert some of the as-yet unconverted ethernet drivers to
it.

To ease skb->truesize sanitization, its better to be able to localize
all references to skb frags size.
Define accessors : skb_frag_size() to fetch frag size, and
skb_frag_size_{set|add|sub}() to manipulate it.

bnx2 allocates a full page per fragment. We must account PAGE_SIZE
increments on skb->truesize, not the actual frag length.

Per comments from Ben Hutchings on a previous patch, sweep the floors
a little removing unnecessary assignments of zero to fields of struct
ethtool_ringparam in driver code supporting ethtool -g.

When I converted some drivers from pci_map_page to skb_frag_dma_map I
neglected to convert PCI_DMA_xDEVICE into DMA_x_DEVICE and
pci_dma_mapping_error into dma_mapping_error.

The firmware is cached during the first successful call to open() and
released once the network device is unregistered. The driver uses the
cached firmware between open() and unregister_netdev().
It's similar to 953a12cc2889d1be92e80a2d0bab5ffef4942300 but the
firmware is mandatory.

Use IFF_UNICAST_FTL to find out if driver handles unicast address
filtering. In case it does not, promisc mode is entered.
Patch also fixes following drivers:
stmmac, niu: support uc filtering and yet it propagated
ndo_set_multicast_list
bna, benet, pxa168_eth, ks8851, ks8851_mll, ksz884x : has set
