Subject: [RFC] network device ops phase 1

This early work on a series of patches to separate the management portions
of the network device (immutable function pointers) from the data
structure part of the network device.

This patch involves some hackery to maintain compatablity between the
new and old model, so all 300+ drivers don't have to be changed at once.
There are two copies of the same function pointers during the transistional
step. As the transistion is completed the nag message can be changed to
an WARN_ON, and the compatiablity code can be made configurable.

A couple function pointers aren't moved:
* destructor can't be in net_device_ops because it may need to be referenced after
   the module is unloaded.
* hard_start_xmit is in the fast path for transmit.
