[PATCH/RFC] gianfar: Add support for byte queue limits.

Add support for byte queue limits (BQL), based on the similar
modifications made to intel/igb/igb_main.c from Eric Dumazet
in commit bdbc063129e811264cd6c311d8c2d9b95de01231.

A local variable for tx_queue->qindex was introduced in
gfar_clean_tx_ring, since it is now used often enough to warrant it,
and it cleans up the readability somewhat as well.

[Too late for 3.3, but I figured I might as well get feedback from people
 in the interim.  Passes basic boot test with NFS root on sbc8548 board.]
