This is an enhancement work that began several years ago. I try to catchup with
some performance improvement that has been implemented then by Havard.
The ring index logic and the TX error path modification are the biggest changes
but some cleanup/debugging have been added along the way.
The GEM revision will benefit from the Gigabit support.

The series has been tested on several Atmel AT91 SoC with the two MACB/GEM
flavors.

v2: - modify the tx error handling: now uses a workqueue
    - information provided by ethtool -i were not accurate: removed

Don't submit patches like this.

When you put an RFC right in the middle of the series, it screws everything
up.

It means that I can't only apply the parts that are not RFC.
