Alexander Duyck c023cd8898 igb: streamline Rx buffer allocation and cleanup
This change is meant to streamline the Rx buffer allocation and cleanup.
This is accomplished by reducing the number of writes by only having the Rx
descriptor ring written by software during allocation, and it will only be
read during cleanup.

Alexander Duyck 44390ca6cb igb: drop support for single buffer mode
This change removes support for single buffer mode from igb and makes the
driver function in packet split always.  The advantage to doing this is
that we can reduce total memory allocation overhead significantly as we
will only need to allocate one 1K slab per packet and then make use of a
reusable half page instead of allocating a 2K slab per packet.

Alexander Duyck 153285f9ce igb: Update max_frame_size to account for an optional VLAN tag if present
This patch modifies the max_frame_size in order account for an optional
VLAN tag.  In order to support this we must also increase the
MAX_STD_JUMBO_FRAME_SIZE to account for the 4 extra bytes.

Jiri Pirko 01789349ee net: introduce IFF_UNICAST_FLT private flag
Use IFF_UNICAST_FTL to find out if driver handles unicast address
filtering. In case it does not, promisc mode is entered.

Patch also fixes following drivers:
stmmac, niu: support uc filtering and yet it propagated
	ndo_set_multicast_list
bna, benet, pxa168_eth, ks8851, ks8851_mll, ksz884x : has set
	ndo_set_rx_mode but do not support uc filtering
