This is a resubmission of a new driver for Solarflare network controllers.

The driver supports the 10Xpress PHY and XFP modules on our reference
designs SFE4001 and SFE4002 and the SMC models SMC10GPCIe-XFP and
SMC10GPCIe-10BT.

The previous thread was:

Some explanation of the driver structure was posted in:

Since the last patch we have made a few bug fixes and removed some
less important features and hardware support, reducing it to 13K
lines.

We would appreciate a thorough review.

Ben.
