For cards that initially have the MAC address stored in reverse order,
the forcedeth driver uses a flag to signal whether the address was
already corrected, so that it is not reversed again on a subsequent
probe.
Unfortunately this flag, which is stored in a register of the card,
seems to get lost

doing such preservations will nullify AUTH and allow connection

All the sysctl concerning the routes are moved to the network namespace

[CASSINI]: Revert 'dont touch page_count'.
This reverts changeset fa4f0774d7c6cccb4d1fda76b91dd8eddcb2dd6a
([CASSINI]: dont touch page_count) because it breaks the driver.
The local page counting added by this changeset did not account
for the asynchronous page count changes done by kfree_skb()
[CASSINI]: Fix endianness bug.
Here's proposed fix for RX checksum handling in cassini; it affects
little-endian working with half-duplex gigabit, but obviously needs
testing on big-endian too.
The problem is, we need to convert checksum to fixed-endian *before*
correcting for (unstripped) FCS.
