Fixes whitespace issues, such as lines exceeding 80 chars, needless blank
lines and the use of spaces where tabs are needed. In addition, fix
multi-line comments to align with the networking standard.

The e1000 driver when running with lockdep could run into
some possible deadlocks between the work items acquiring
rtnl and the rtnl lock being acquired before work items
were cancelled.
Use a private mutex to make sure lock ordering isn't violated.
The private mutex is only used to protect areas not generally
covered by the rtnl lock already.

Thomas Gleixner (tglx) reported that e1000 was delaying for many milliseconds
(using mdelay) from inside timer/interrupt context. None of these paths are
performance critical and can be moved into threads/work items. This patch
implements the work items and the next patch changes the mdelays to msleeps.

Virtual Machines with emulated e1000 network adapter running on Parallels'
server were seeing kernel panics due to the e1000 driver dereferencing an
unexpected NULL pointer retrieved from buffer_info->skb.
The problem has been addressed for the e1000e driver, but not for the e1000.
Since the two drivers share similar code in the affected area, a port of the
following e1000e driver commit solves the issue for the e1000 driver:

e1000e: save skb counts in TX to avoid cache misses
In e1000_tx_map, precompute number of segements and bytecounts which
are derived from fields in skb; these are stored in buffer_info. When
cleaning tx in e1000_clean_tx_irq use the values in the associated
buffer_info for statistics counting, this eliminates cache misses
on skb fields.
