We found a new chip setting that we need in order
to make the driver work more reliable.

Performance optimizations, changes in these areas:
- RX and TX checksum offload
- correct maximum MTU
- don't use TX interrupts anymore, use a timer instead
- remove some superfluous barriers
- improve RX RAM full handling

The driver incorrectly used dma_addr_t to describe
HW structures and consequently broke when that type
was changed in 2.6.15-rc.
This changed spidernet to use u32 for 32 bit HW defined
structure elements.

This patch adds a driver for a new 1000 Mbit ethernet NIC. It is
integrated on the south bridge that is used for our Cell Blades.
The code gets the MAC address from the Open Firmware device tree, so it
won't compile on platforms other than ppc64.
This is the first public release, so I don't expect the first version to
get merged, but I'd aim for integration within the 2.6.13 time frame.
