The attached patch adds scatter gather and segmentation offload support
into forcedeth driver.

This patch has been tested by NVIDIA and reviewed by Manfred.

Notes:
- Manfred mentioned that mapping of pages could take time and should not
be under spinlock for performance reasons
- During testing with netperf, I have noticed a connection running
segmentation offload gets "unoffloaded" by the kernel due to possible
retransmissions.

Thanks,
Ayaz
