netns: Fix icmp shutdown.

Recently I had a kernel panic in icmp_send during a network namespace
cleanup.  There were packets in the arp queue that failed to be sent
and we attempted to generate an ICMP host unreachable message, but
failed because icmp_sk_exit had already been called.

The network devices are removed from a network namespace and their
arp queues are flushed before we do attempt to shutdown subsystems
so this error should have been impossible.

It turns out icmp_init is using register_pernet_device instead
of register_pernet_subsys.  Which resulted in icmp being shut down
while we still had the possibility of packets in flight, making

netns: fix addrconf_ifdown kernel panic

When a network namespace is destroyed the network interfaces are
all unregistered, making addrconf_ifdown called by the netdevice
notifier.
In the other hand, the addrconf exit method does a loop on the network
devices and does addrconf_ifdown on each of them. But the ordering of
the netns subsystem is not right because it uses the register_pernet_device
instead of register_pernet_subsys. If we handle the loopback as
any network device, we can safely use register_pernet_subsys.

But if we use register_pernet_subsys, the addrconf exit method will do
exactly what was already done with the unregistering of the network
devices. So in definitive, this code is pointless.

I removed the netns addrconf exit method and moved the code to the

Adding "ethtool -d" support. Due to the complexity of the FW and HW, there are a
lot of different regions in the chip - to keep the code as clean as possible,
the ranges were put in an H file. Some areas cannot be read if the driver is
running - so by default, the driver will not access those areas - but any
programmer facing a problem will be able to easily manipulate the driver to
extract full dump. The full dump can also be used with kernel dump modules in
case of kernel panic.

The call was added to improve performance but did so by allowing the skb to
be removed from the socket which gave the socket more window space to
