Update the Intel igb driver to version 2.4.0
- This version has support for the new Intel Avoton systems,
including 2.5Gb support, further it now has IPv6/TSO6 support as
well. Shared code has been updated where necessary as well. Thanks
to my new assistant Eric Joyner for doing the transmit path changes
to bring in the IPv6/TSO6 support. Thanks to Gleb for catching the
one bug and change needed in NETMAP.

Add support for the new I350 family of 1G interfaces.
- this also includes virtualization support on these devices
Correct some vlan issues we were seeing in test, jumbo frames on vlans
did not work correctly, this was all due to confused logic around HW
filters, the new code should now work for all uses.
Important fix: when mbuf resources are depeleted, it was possible to
completely empty the RX ring, and then the RX engine would stall
forever. This is fixed by a flag being set whenever the refresh code
fails due to an mbuf shortage, also the local timer now makes sure
that all queues get an interrupt when it runs, the interrupt code
will then always call rxeof, and in that routine the first thing done
is now to check the refresh flag and call refresh_mbufs. This has been
verified to fix this type 'hang'. Similar code will follow in the other
drivers.
Finally, sync up shared code for the I350 support.
Thanks to everyone that has been reporting issues, and helping in the
debug/test process!!

OK, I was a bit sleep this morning and checked in
the core changes but left out the shared code, lol.
Well, and a couple fixes to the core... hopefully
this will all be complete now.
Happy happy joy joy :)
