- Fix compilation without GEM_DEBUG.
- Do not #define GEM_DEBUG by default; it adds overhead (due to bzero()ing
RX space) and is not needed any more, since the driver is quite stable
now.
- Fix watchdog timeouts when failing to load TX packets.
- Do not forcibly limit the number of descriptors used for a packet to
GEM_NTXSEGS, by passing this number to bus_dma_tag_create(). There is
no requirement for a limit any lower than the total number of
available descriptors, and the present limit caused network problems
due to mbuf chains requiring more descriptors.
GEM_NTXSEGS is still used to estimate the interrupt window size, for
which we just need an estimate.

- Remove NetBSD-style or-ed together BUS_DMASYNC operations, in some
cases relaxing the (intended) syncing operation a bit.
- Stop pretending that that we can sync part of a dmamap: replace the
GEM_CDTXSYNC and GEM_CDRXSYNC macros with GEM_CDSYNC to sync the
complete control map, and combine syncs wherever possible to avoid
the overhead.
- Sync all maps before unloading them.
- Remove a few syncs which should be unnecessary.
- remove DPRINTF(), there is a CTR*() for any of them, and KTR is
far more useful to debug this driver.
- some cleanups; remove some unused code and definitions.
o don't strip the Ethernet header from inbound packets; pass packets
up the stack intact (required significant changes to some drivers)
o reference common definitions in net/ethernet.h (e.g. ETHER_ALIGN)
o track ether_ifattach/ether_ifdetach API changes
o track bpf changes (use BPF_TAP and BPF_MTAP)
o track vlan changes (ifnet capabilities, revised processing scheme, etc.)
o use if_input to pass packets "up"
o call ether_ioctl for default handling of ioctls

packets remain unhandled until the next one arrives.
