[netdrvr] Remove Linux-specific changelogs from several Becker template drivers 

When in-kernel net drivers branched from Donald Becker's vanilla driver
set, in the days before BitKeeper and git, a driver changelog was
maintained in the driver source code.  These days, the kernel's
changelog is far superior and much more accurate, so the in-driver
changelogs are removed.

Another relic of the Becker/kernel split was version numbering, using
"foo-LKx.y.z" notation, resulting in weird version numbers like
"1.17b-LK1.1.9".  These drivers are for older hardware, and see few
changes these days, so the version numbers were all bumped to something
more simple.

Finally, in xircom_tulip_cb specifically, an additional cleanup removes
the always-enabled CARDBUS cpp macro.

Version 1.0.3:
- Eliminate redundant priv->tx_full flag
- Call netif_start_queue from dev->tx_timeout

- Update Tx locking
- Clean up PCI enable (davej)
Version 1.0.4:
- Merge Donald Becker's natsemi.c version 1.07
Version 1.0.5:
- { fill me in }
Version 1.0.6:
* ethtool support (jgarzik)
* Proper initialization of the card (which sometimes
fails to occur and leaves the card in a non-functional
state). (uzi)
* Some documented register settings to optimize some
of the 100Mbit autodetection circuitry in rev C cards. (uzi)
* Polling of the PHY intr for stuff like link state
change and auto- negotiation to finally work properly. (uzi)
* One-liner removal of a duplicate declaration of
netdev_error(). (uzi)
Version 1.0.7: (Manfred Spraul)
* pci dma
* SMP locking update
* full reset added into tx_timeout
* correct multicast hash generation (both big and little endian)
[copied from a natsemi driver version
from Myrio Corporation, Greg Smith]

drivers relies on TxDone - TxIntr not needed)
* wait that the hardware has really stopped in close
and suspend.
* workaround for the (at least) gcc-2.95.1 compiler
problem. Also simplifies the code a bit.
* disable_irq() in tx_timeout - needed to protect
against rx interrupts.

so normal interrupts will not trigger the message (src: Donald Becker)
