NetXen: Make driver use multiple PCI functions.
This patch will make NetXen driver work with multiple PCI functions. This will
make the usage of memory resources as well as interrupts more independent
among different functions which results in better throughput. This change has
been done after the multiport support is added in firmware.

NetXen: This will fix a softlock seen on some machines.
The reason was too much time was spent waiting for hardware access
to go through.

Compiler warning spots real error!
The function do_rom_fast_read called in do_rom_fast_write can fail
and leave data1 unset. This causes a compile warning.
The correct thing is to propagate the error out.

The netxen driver includes a private ioctl that provides access
to functionality that is already available in other ways. The PCI
layer has application access hooks (see setpci), and the statistics
are available in ethtool/netstats.
