This change is meant to streamline the Rx buffer allocation and cleanup.
This is accomplished by reducing the number of writes by only having the Rx
descriptor ring written by software during allocation, and it will only be
read during cleanup.

This change removes support for single buffer mode from igb and makes the
driver function in packet split always. The advantage to doing this is
that we can reduce total memory allocation overhead significantly as we
will only need to allocate one 1K slab per packet and then make use of a
reusable half page instead of allocating a 2K slab per packet.

This patch modifies the max_frame_size in order account for an optional
VLAN tag. In order to support this we must also increase the
MAX_STD_JUMBO_FRAME_SIZE to account for the 4 extra bytes.
