Merge branch 'netdev_diet'

Thomas Graf says:

====================
Bring sizeof(net_device) down to < 2K bytes

The size of struct net_device crossed the 2K boundary a while ago which
is a waste in combination with many net namespaces. This series brings
the size of struct net_device down to well below 2K in total size with
a typical configuration. Some reserves a several holes leave room for
further expansion.

Before:
/* size: 2176, cachelines: 34, members: 121 */

After:
/* size: 1984, cachelines: 31, members: 120 */
