Fix b44 network regression in Quantal

[Stefan Bader]

Frankly I don't understand why this exactly makes a difference,
but at least I can confirm from testing that the b44 part really
does fix the issue. Without the patch any network connection
is reset quite often (even loosing pings) and the PHY is powered
down during reset. With the patch applied network connection is
stable. I think the b43 I have in that machine never worked too
well with the b43 driver (had to use wl), so I cannot be sure
about the b43 part, but at least it is doing the same changes as for b44.

Eric sent out the patch to be added to linux-net, but I am not sure how
long it takes to get into mainline. And since it is a regression and
I was able to test (most of) it, I think it should be added as soon as
possible.

Subject: [PATCH] UBUNTU: (pre-up) net: dont use __netdev_alloc_skb for bounce buffer

commit a1c7fff7e1 (net: netdev_alloc_skb() use build_skb()) broke b44 on
some 64bit machines.

It appears b44 and b43 use __netdev_alloc_skb() instead of alloc_skb()
for their bounce buffers.

There is no need to add an extra NET_SKB_PAD reservation for bounce
buffers :

- In TX path, NET_SKB_PAD is useless

- In RX path in b44, we force a copy of incoming frames if
  GFP_DMA allocations were needed.
