using the Rhine's internal shift registers which are designed
for the job. This reduces the amount of time we wait around shifting
bits, and seems to work better with some chips.
Also, provide a workaround for some newer cards which report fake PHYs
at multiple addresses. (As more cards are ID'd, I'm sure this part
of the code will have to be expanded to cover more cases.)

MFC after: 1 week
under load.
This patch has been tested by Thomas and other for more than a month now,
and all (known) hangs seem to be solved.
Thomas's explanation of the patch:
* Fix the problem with the printing of the RX-error.
* Code from if_fet do better deal with the RX-recovery including a
timeout of the RX-turnoff.
* The call to vr_rxeof before vr_rxeoc have been moved to a point
where the RX-part of the chip is turned off. Otherwise there is a
window where new data could have been written to the buffer chain
before the RX-part is turned off. If this happens the chip will see
a busy rx-buffer. I have no evidence that this have occured but
god knows what the chip will do in this case!
* I have added a timeout of the TX-turnoff. I have checked and in
my 900 MHz system the flags for turnoff (both RX & TX) is seen at
the first check in the loop.
* I could see that I got the VR_ISR_DROPPED interrupt sometimes and
started to thinking about this. I then realized that no recovery is
needed for this case and therefore I only count it as an rxerror
(which was not done before).
* Finally I have changed the FIFO RX threshhold to 128 bytes. When I
did this the VR_ISR_DROPPED interrupt went away. Theory: The chip
will receive a complete frame before it tries to write it out to
memory then the RX threshold is set to store'n'forward. IF the frame
is large AND the next rx frame also is large AND the bus is busy
transfering a TX frame to the TX fifo THEN the second received
frame wont fit in the FIFO and is then dropped. By having the RX
threshold set to 128 the RX fifo is emptied faster.

o Use a non-recursive gcd routine.
This should fix the IR(and maybe IT) problem when
the host becames the bus manager.

This fixes a panic on machines with an rsc card.

We use the md_pad[] array and if there are more units than its size the
last returned unit number will be -1, but the number of units returned
is correct.

An alias is created for the old name so that old /etc/ttys will continue to
work, but due to aliases being implemented as symlinks in devfs you cannot
login as root when using the alias device.

- add ARC_MAX_DATA, use IF_HANDOFF, remove arc_sprintf() and some unused
variables
- if_simloop logic is made more similar to ethernet
- drop not ours packets early (if we are not in promiscous mode)
