I noticed that ugeth_graceful_stop_rx() is lacking in_8()/out_8() so I
am adding that, but I cant test until tmw.

Also notice that there is a lot of in_beX()/out_beX() in the driver and
those functions use the sync instruction. Won't that much suny usage
hurt performance and is sync really needed?
