(commit 9a46fccdd28f9939c10f81748e1430afbb95138d)

1. 128-bit MMIO writes for TX push, by Stuart Hodgson.  We previously
   tried to do this with write-combining, but that turned out to be
   unsafe.  Now we use SSE (on x86_64 only).
2. Fix potential badness when running a self-test with SR-IOV enabled.
3. Fix calculation of some interface statistics that could run backward.
4. Miscellaneous cleanup.

Ben.
