This patch fixes several bugs in the gianfar driver, including a major one
where spinlocks were horribly broken:
* Split gianfar locks into two types: TX and RX
* Made it so gfar_start() now clears RHALT
* Fixed a bug where calling gfar_start_xmit() with interrupts off would
corrupt the interrupt state
* Fixed a bug where a frame could potentially arrive, and never be handled
(if no more frames arrived
* Fixed a bug where the rx_work_limit would never be observed by the rx
completion code
* Fixed a bug where the interrupt handlers were not actually protected by
their spinlocks

This patch removes almost all inclusions of linux/version.h. The 3
#defines are unused in most of the touched files.
A few drivers use the simple KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) macro, which is
unfortunatly in linux/version.h.
There are also lots of #ifdef for long obsolete kernels, this was not
touched. In a few places, the linux/version.h include was move to where
the LINUX_VERSION_CODE was used.

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!
