Andy Fleming fef6108d45 [PATCH] Fix locking in gianfar ...

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
