Since hardware header operations are part of the protocol class
not the device instance, make them into a separate object and
save memory.

<title>[NET] drivers/net: statistics cleanup #1 -- save memory and shrink code</title>

We now have struct net_device_stats embedded in struct net_device,
and the default -&gt;get_stats() hook does the obvious thing for us.

Run through drivers/net/* and remove the driver-local storage of
statistics, and driver-local -&gt;get_stats() hook where applicable.

This was just the low-hanging fruit in drivers/net; plenty more drivers
remain to be updated.

[ Resolved conflicts with napi_struct changes and fix sunqe build
  regression... -DaveM ]

Dave, you were right and the sleeping locks in shaper were
broken. Markus Kanet noticed this and also tested the patch below that
switches locking to spinlocks.

 o move locking out of shaper_kick and into the callers - most just
   released the lock before calling shaper_kick
 o remove in_interrupt() tests.  from -&gt;close we can always block, from

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
