MAC addr, multicast filters, mtu are set through firmware commands
in firmware v4.0.0+ because of virtualization of physical ports.
Link status is also read from registers allocated by firmware for
each virtual port.

o Reduce access to global arrays in data path.
o Remove duplicate/unused variables, unecessary alignment constraints.
o Use correct pci_dev instead of fallback device for consistent
allocations.
o Disable ethtool set_eeprom functionality for now, it was only used
for flashing firmware.

Recent netxen firmware has new scheme of generating MSI interrupts, it
raises interrupt and blocks itself, waiting for driver to unmask. This
reduces chance of spurious interrupts.
The driver will be able to deal with older firmware as well.

NetXen: Make driver use multiple PCI functions.
This patch will make NetXen driver work with multiple PCI functions. This will
make the usage of memory resources as well as interrupts more independent
among different functions which results in better throughput. This change has
been done after the multiport support is added in firmware.
