[netdrvr starfire] fix highmem and broken firmware issues 

Unfortunately, [your patch] might address the crash but doesn't address
the real problem. It turns out that the problem is one of padding
(the firmware cksum engine works only on 32-bit chunks, yuck), so
the special casing for length == 1 wasn't sufficient anyway.

This patch addresses the issue, as well the other issue of i386 +
CONFIG_HIGHMEM being broken. It is pretty much the same workaround
that Adaptec themselves used in their Windows driver. I have yet to
check if it fixes the problem when the skb is non-linear, but this
patch _will_ solve the problem for 99% of the users out there (those
not using sendfile).

- finally added firmware (GPL'ed by Adaptec)
- removed compatibility code for 2.2.x
LK1.4.2.1 (Ion Badulescu)
- fixed 32/64 bit issues on i386 + CONFIG_HIGHMEM
- added 32-bit padding to outgoing skb's, removed previous workaround
TODO: - fix forced speed/duplexing code (broken a long time ago, when
somebody converted the driver to use the generic MII code)
- fix VLAN support
