Die with a fatal error if we are unable to set gate A20; if this fails
then we are bound to experience memory corruption at a later stage,

Ignore obviously invalid length combinations (as returned by
e.g. VMWare's PXE stack).

Limit to one packet per poll to avoid memory exhaustion.

Always send EOI; do not chain to BIOS's default interrupt handler.
They are just too unpredictable; at least VMware's seems to kill the

Disable interrupts after return from PXENV_UNDI_ISR, just in case some
dumb PXE stack enables them.

Add netdev_irq() method.  Net device open()/close() methods should no

Remove rx_quota; it wasn't used anywhere and added too much complexity
to implementing correct interrupt-masking behaviour in pxe_undi.c.
