The IPv4/IPv6 datagram output path was using skb_trim to trim paged

[IPSEC]: Validate properly in xfrm_dst_check()

I misunderstood this intention when I changed
xfrm_dst_check() to always return NULL.
Now, when we purge a dst entry, by running dst_free()
on it. This will set the dst->obsolete to a positive

that the socket does a relookup for the route.
Thus, if dst->obsolete<0, let stale_bundle() validate
the state, else always return NULL.
In general, we need to do things more intelligently

F.e. timer has fired on CPU2, but the handler was preeempted

if (!tx_ring_full)

netif_wake_queue()

Even though tx_ring is updated before the if statement in tg3_tx() in
program order, it can be re-ordered by the CPU as shown above. This
scenario can cause the tx queue to be stopped forever if tg3_tx() has
just freed up the entire tx_ring. The possibility of this happening
should be very rare though.
The following changes are made:
1. Add memory barrier to fix the above race condition.
2. Eliminate the private tx_lock altogether and rely solely on
netif_tx_lock. This eliminates one spinlock in tg3_start_xmit()
when the ring is full.
3. Because of 2, use netif_tx_lock in tg3_tx() before calling
netif_wake_queue().
4. Change TX_BUFFS_AVAIL to an inline function with a memory barrier.
Herbert and David suggested using the memory barrier instead of
volatile.
5. Check for the full wake queue condition before getting
netif_tx_lock in tg3_tx(). This reduces the number of unnecessary
spinlocks when the tx ring is full in a steady-state condition.
