another set of ppc405_enet changes

From: andrew may <hidden>

I wanted to limit this patch to be just a rework of the static var's but I
ended up changing more things. I will attempt a summary of the changes.
I did not compile/fix the stuff ifdef'd out by default.

I attached the output from some runs with nttcp before and after the changes.
It does not appear like there is any noticable change in performace from these
changes. "-u" is for UDP "-r" is Rx'd on the 405GP Tx'd by my x86 box, "-t" is
Tx'd by the 405GP Rx'd by the x86.
One thing to look into would be the diff between UDP tx packets to the
number rx'd on the other side. I don't know where the packets are being dropped
now.

Config.ini changed to CONFIG_PPC405_ENET to be tristate instead of just bool.

Change NUM_RX to 32 and NUM_TX to 8. Doesn't change performace noticablely.
Moved probe1 code into init function.

kfree of private struct on module unload or failure to register netdevice.

Used skb->len instead of tail-head in places.

For both tx/rx eob int's clear reg first then loop through, instead of loop
clear, goto top of loop again.

Moved tx stat counts into tx eob from hard_xmit. In tx_eob moved netif_wake
outside of loop.

In rx_eob wait untill end of function to refill slots instead of after
each packet. Also did skb_put instead of += tail and len. Put in check
for dev_alloc_skb failure but still no recovery when OOM.
