xen/netfront: fix inbound packet flags for checksum offload
Currently netfront is setting the flags of inbound packets with the checksum
not present (offloaded) to (CSUM_IP_CHECKED | CSUM_IP_VALID | CSUM_DATA_VALID |
CSUM_PSEUDO_HDR). According to the mbuf(9) man page this is not the correct
combination of flags, it should instead be (CSUM_DATA_VALID |
CSUM_PSEUDO_HDR).

xen-netfront: perform an interface reset when changing options
The PV backend will only pick the new options when the interface is detached
and reattached again, so perform a full reset when changing options. This is
very fast, and should not be noticeable by the user.

xen-netfront: release grant references used for the shared rings
Just calling gnttab_end_foreign_access_ref doesn't free the references,
instead call gnttab_end_foreign_access with a NULL page argument in order to
have the grant references freed. The code that maps the ring
(xenbus_map_ring) already uses gnttab_grant_foreign_access which takes care
of allocating a grant reference.

xen-netfront: fix two hotplug related issues
This patch fixes two issues seen on hot-unplug. The first one is a panic
caused by calling ether_ifdetach after freeing the internal netfront queue
structures. ether_ifdetach will call xn_qflush, and this needs to be done
before freeing the queues. This prevents the following panic:
Fatal trap 9: general protection fault while in kernel mode

Another panic can be triggered by hot-plugging a NIC:

This is caused by marking the driver as active before it's fully
initialized, and thus calling xn_txq_mq_start with num_queues set to 0.

xen-netfront: switch to using an interrupt handler
In order to use custom taskqueues we would have to mask the interrupt, which
is basically what is already done for an interrupt handler, or else we risk
loosing interrupts. This switches netfront to the same interrupt handling
that was done before multiqueue support was added.

xen-netfront: always keep the Rx ring full of requests
This is based on Linux commit 1f3c2eba1e2d866ef99bb9b10ade4096e3d7607c from
David Vrabel:
A full Rx ring only requires 1 MiB of memory. This is not enough memory
that it is useful to dynamically scale the number of Rx requests in the ring
based on traffic rates, because:
a) Even the full 1 MiB is a tiny fraction of a typically modern Linux
VM (for example, the AWS micro instance still has 1 GiB of memory).
b) Netfront would have used up to 1 MiB already even with moderate
data rates (there was no adjustment of target based on memory
pressure).
c) Small VMs are going to typically have one VCPU and hence only one
queue.
Keeping the ring full of Rx requests handles bursty traffic better than
trying to converge on an optimal number of requests to keep filled.
