This patch adds a new field to net device to hold the permanent
hardware address, and adds a new generic ethtool_op function to
get that address.

It was checking the "GET" function pointer instead of
the "SET" one. Looks like a cut&paste error :-)

The features field in netdevice is really a bitmask, and bitmask's should
be unsigned.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
