Subject: [PATCH 1/2] forcedeth: add recv cache make nic work steadily

A recv cache is added. The size of recv cache is 1000Mb / skb_length.
When the system memory is not enough, this recv cache can make nic work
steadily.
When nic is up, this recv cache and work queue are created. When nic
is down, this recv cache will be destroyed and delayed workqueue is
canceled.
When nic is polled or rx interrupt is triggerred, rx handler will
get a skb from recv cache. Then the state of recv cache is checked.
If recv cache is not in filling up state, a work is queued to fill
up recv cache.
When skb size is changed, the old recv cache is destroyed and new recv
cache is created.
When the system memory is not enough, the allocation of skb failed.
recv cache will continue allocate skb until the recv cache is filled up.
When the system memory is not enough, this can make nic work steadily.
Becase of recv cache, the performance of nic is enhanced.
