Luigi Rizzo 579a6e3c4e add netmap support for "em", "lem", "igb" and "re". ...

On my hardware, "em" in netmap mode does about 1.388 Mpps
on one card (on an Asus motherboard), and 1.1 Mpps on another
card (PCIe bus). Both seem to be NIC-limited, because
i have the same rate even with the CPU running at 150 MHz.

On the "re" driver the tx throughput is around 420-450 Kpps
on various (8111C and the like) chipsets. On the Rx side
performance seems much better, and i can receive the full
load generated by the "em" cards.

"igb" is untested as i don't have the hardware.
