Having separate fields in sk_buff for TSO/UFO (tso_size/ufo_size) is not
going to scale if we add any more segmentation methods (e.g., DCCP). So
let's merge them.
They were used to tell the protocol of a packet. This function has been
subsumed by the new gso_type field. This is essentially a set of netdev
feature bits (shifted by 16 bits) that are required to process a specific
skb. As such it's easy to tell whether a given device can process a GSO
skb: you just have to and the gso_type field and the netdev's features
field.
I've made gso_type a conjunction. The idea is that you have a base type
(e.g., SKB_GSO_TCPV4) that can be modified further to support new features.
For example, if we add a hardware TSO type that supports ECN, they would
declare NETIF_F_TSO | NETIF_F_TSO_ECN. All TSO packets with CWR set would
have a gso_type of SKB_GSO_TCPV4 | SKB_GSO_TCPV4_ECN while all other TSO
packets would be SKB_GSO_TCPV4. This means that only the CWR packets need
to be emulated in software.

First of all it is unnecessary to allocate a new skb in skb_pad since
the existing one is not shared. More importantly, our hard_start_xmit
interface does not allow a new skb to be allocated since that breaks
requeueing.
This patch uses pskb_expand_head to expand the existing skb and linearize
it if needed. Actually, someone should sift through every instance of
skb_pad on a non-linear skb as they do not fit the reasons why this was
originally created.
Incidentally, this fixes a minor bug when the skb is cloned (tcpdump,
TCP, etc.). As it is skb_pad will simply write over a cloned skb. Because
of the position of the write it is unlikely to cause problems but still
it's best if we don't do it.

We don't need to restore the state right after saving it for later recovery
since commit 99dc804d9b (PCI: disable msi mode
in pci_disable_device) now prevents pci_save_state() from disabling MSI.

We don't need to hardcode the AER capability of the nVidia CK804 chipset
anymore since commit cf34a8e07f (PCI: nVidia
quirk to make AER PCI-E extended capability visible) now makes sure that
this cap will be available to pci_find_ext_capability().

The following patch updates the myri10ge to 1.0.0, with the following changes:
* Switch to dma_alloc_coherent API.
* Avoid PCI burst when writing the firmware on chipset with unaligned completions.
* Use ethtool_op_set_tx_hw_csum instead of ethtool_op_set_tx_csum.
* Include linux/dma-mapping.h to bring DMA_32/64BIT_MASK on all architectures
(was missing at least on alpha).
* Some typo and warning fixes.
