Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hello All,

currently the mipsnet driver fails after transmitting a number of
packages because SKBs are allocated but never freed. I fixed that
and coudn't refrain from removing the most egregious warts.

- mipsnet.h folded into mipsnet.c, as it doesn't provide any
  useful external interface.
- Free SKB after transmission.
- Call free_irq in mipsnet_close, to balance the request_irq in
  mipsnet_open.
- Removed duplicate read of rxDataCount.
- Some identifiers are now less verbose.
- Removed dead and/or unnecessarily complex code.
- Code formatting fixes.

Tested on Qemu's mipssim emulation, with this patch it can boot a
Debian NFSroot.
