Reuse the existing logic for multicast list synchronization for the
unicast address list. The core of dev_mc_sync/unsync are split out as
__dev_addr_sync/unsync and moved from dev_mcast.c to dev.c. These are
then used to implement dev_unicast_sync/unsync as well.
I'm working on cleaning up Intel's FCoE stack, which generates new MAC
addresses from the fibre channel device id assigned by the fabric as
per the current draft specification in T11. When using such a
protocol in a VLAN environment it would be nice to not always be
forced into promiscuous mode, assuming the underlying Ethernet driver
supports multiple unicast addresses as well.

The performance wins come with having the DMA copy engine doing the copies
in parallel with the context switch. If there is enough data ready on the
socket at recv time just use a regular copy.

There's only one now anyway, and it's not in a performance path,
so make it behave the same on 32-bit and 64-bit CPUs.

Every 20 descriptors turns out to be to few append commands with
newer/faster CPUs. Pushing every 4 still cuts down on MMIO writes to an
acceptable level without letting the DMA engine run out of work.

Remove the lock_cpu_hotplug()/unlock_cpu_hotplug() calls from
net_dma_rebalance
The lock_cpu_hotplug()/unlock_cpu_hotplug() sequence in
net_dma_rebalance is both incorrect (as pointed out by David Miller)
because lock_cpu_hotplug() may sleep while the net_dma_event_lock
spinlock is held, and unnecessary (as pointed out by Andrew Morton) as
spin_lock() disables preemption which protects from CPU hotplug
events.

Add an extra argument to sk_eat_skb, and make it move early copied
packets to the async_wait_queue instead of freeing them.

Adds an async_wait_queue and some additional fields to tcp_sock, and a
