We now have struct net_device_stats embedded in struct net_device,
and the default ->get_stats() hook does the obvious thing for us.
Run through drivers/net/* and remove the driver-local storage of
statistics, and driver-local ->get_stats() hook where applicable.
This was just the low-hanging fruit in drivers/net; plenty more drivers
remain to be updated.

Introduce a new syscall TUNSETGROUP for group ownership setting of tap
devices. The user now is allowed to send packages if either his euid or
his egid matches the one specified via tunctl (via -u or -g
respecitvely). If both, gid and uid, are set via tunctl, both have to
match.

Currently tun/tap only supports the EN10MB ARP type. For use with
wireless and other networking types it should be possible to set the
ARP type via an ioctl.
Patch v2: Included check that the tap interface is down before changing the
link type out from underneath it

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!
