This backports 9356b8fc d314774c and f646968f8f
all added in next-20130423. Soome driver changes are
still required and will be addressed separately.

[NET]: Reorder some hot fields of struct net_device
Place them on separate cache lines in SMP to lower memory bouncing
between multiple CPU accessing the device.
- One part is mostly used on receive path (including
eth_type_trans()) (poll_list, poll, quota, weight, last_rx,
dev_addr, broadcast)
- One part is mostly used on queue transmit path (qdisc)
(queue_lock, qdisc, qdisc_sleeping, qdisc_list, tx_queue_len)
- One part is mostly used on xmit path (device)
(xmit_lock, xmit_lock_owner, priv, hard_start_xmit, trans_start)
'features' is placed outside of these hot points, in a location that
may be shared by all cpus (because mostly read)
name_hlist is moved close to name[IFNAMSIZ] to speedup __dev_get_by_name()

netdev: network device operations infrastructure
This patch changes the network device internal API to move adminstrative
operations out of the network device structure and into a separate structure.
This patch involves some hackery to maintain compatablity between the
new and old model, so all 300+ drivers don't have to be changed at once.
For drivers that aren't converted yet, the netdevice_ops virt function list
still resides in the net_device structure. For old protocols, the new
net_device_ops are copied out to the old net_device pointers.
After the transistion is completed the nag message can be changed to
an WARN_ON, and the compatiablity code can be made configurable.
Some function pointers aren't moved:
* destructor can't be in net_device_ops because
it may need to be referenced after the module is unloaded.
* neighbor setup is manipulated in a couple of places that need special
consideration
* hard_start_xmit is in the fast path for transmit.

net: vlan: rename NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_* feature flags to NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_CTAG_*
Rename the hardware VLAN acceleration features to include "CTAG" to indicate
that they only support CTAGs. Follow up patches will introduce 802.1ad
server provider tagging (STAGs) and require the distinction for hardware not
supporting acclerating both.
