With centralized MTU checking, there's nothing productive done by
eth_change_mtu that isn't already done in dev_set_mtu, so mark it as
deprecated and remove all usage of it in the kernel. All callers have been
audited for calls to alloc_etherdev* or ether_setup directly, which means
they all have a valid dev->min_mtu and dev->max_mtu. Now eth_change_mtu
prints out a netdev_warn about being deprecated, for the benefit of
out-of-tree drivers that might be utilizing it.
Of note, dvb_net.c actually had dev->mtu = 4096, while using
eth_change_mtu, meaning that if you ever tried changing it's mtu, you
couldn't set it above 1500 anymore. It's now getting dev->max_mtu also set
to 4096 to remedy that.

Failure of kzalloc should cause the enclosing function
to return -ENOMEM, not -ENODEV.
Additionally, removed the following checkpatch warnings:
ERROR: spaces required around that '==' (ctx:VxV)
ERROR: space required before the open parenthesis '('
CHECK: Comparison to NULL could be written "!lp"

The lance interrupt handler was using the hard-coded name which would make it difficult to tell where the interrupt came from. Changed to use the device name that made the interrupt.

skb->dev is being unnecessarily set during ring init. It is already being set
to the proper value when eth_type_trans is called on packet receive, and the
skb->dev is not referenced anywhere else in the code.

Moves the drivers for the AMD chipsets into drivers/net/ethernet/amd/
and the necessary Kconfig and Makfile changes.
The au1000 (Alchemy) driver was also moved into the same directory
even though it is not a "Lance" driver.
