Subject: [PATCH net v3 0/9] forcedeth: minor fixes for stats, rmmod, sparse

Changes since v2:
 - removed "Fix a race during rmmod of forcedeth" from the series
   (will look at it separately with original author)
 - added "remove unneeded stats updates" and "64-bit stats"
 - reordered patches

Changes since v1:
 - rebased on top of netdev tip
 - do not repeat name of device in netdev_dbg
 - do not completely mute TX timeout messages when debug_tx_timeout is
   not set
 - make debug_tx_timeout writable in /sys/module
 Note: I am re-submitting "expose module parameters in /sys/module" as
       it can be useful in production and I was assured it doesn't add
       much memory overhead by the sysfs maintainers.

Tested:
  16-way x86_64 SMP, dual forcedeth ->
  RX bytes:7244556582 (7.2 GB)  TX bytes:181904254 (181.9 MB)
