The PV network protocol is using 4KB page granularity. The goal of this
patch is to allow a Linux using 64KB page granularity working as a
network backend on a non-modified Xen.
It's only necessary to adapt the ring size and break skb data in small
chunk of 4KB. The rest of the code is relying on

Prepare the stmmac platform code to support standalone drivers
by exporting the need functions and having of_match_device use
the match table reference already present in the driver struct.
This will allow us to reuse the platform driver functions from
this code easily in other stand alone platfor
Convert platform glue layer into a proper platform
driver and add it to the build system.
