When working on the mcs7830, I noticed the need for a mutex in its
mdio_read/mdio_write functions. A related problem seems to be present
in the asix driver in the respective functions.
This introduces a mutex in the common usbnet driver and uses it
from the two hardware specific drivers.

This adds generic support for the ethtool commands get_settings,
set_settings, get_link and nway_reset to usbnet. These are now
implemented using mii functions when a low-level driver supports
mdio_read/mdio_write and does not override the usbnet ethtool
commands with its own.
Currently, this applies to the asix and the mcs7830 drivers.
I have tested it on mcs7830.

This driver adds support for the DeLOCK USB ethernet adapter
and potentially others based on the MosChip MCS7830 chip.
It is based on the usbnet and asix drivers as well as the
original device driver provided by MosChip, which in turn
was based on the usbnet driver.
It has been tested successfully on an OHCI, but interestingly
there seems to be a problem with the mcs7830 when connected to
the ICH6/EHCI in my thinkpad: it keeps receiving lots of
broken packets in the RX interrupt. The problem goes away when
I'm using an active USB hub, so I assume it's not related to
the device driver, but rather to the hardware.
