-It has new hardware support
-It uses a new method of TX cleanup called Head Write Back
-It includes the provisional generic TCP LRO feature contributed
by Myricom and made general purpose by me. This should move into
the stack upon approval but for this driver drop its in here.
-Also bug fixes and etc...
MFC in a week if no serious issues arise.
The first drop was Beta, this code is expected to be the release version.
Note that this driver code will build in either 6.2 or 7. If you
use the code in 6.2 you will not get TSO or MSI/X support but it will
function in a legacy mode.

- change include style so build in kernel try OR standalone work.
- Limit HWCSUM - I was led to believe that it would work with RSS,
but our testing had odd issues which suggests this is false.
- A fatfinger error in the ioctl code made ifconfig up not work.
