[netdrvr] Remove Linux-specific changelogs from several Becker templa…

…te 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. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

-		- Spinlock fixes
-		- Bug fixes and better intr performance (Tjeerd)
-	Version 1.0.2:
-		- Now reads correct MAC address from eeprom
-	Version 1.0.3:
-		- Eliminate redundant priv->tx_full flag

-	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)

-		and suspend.

-		* only do cable_magic on 83815 and early 83816 (Tim Hockin)
-		* create a function for rx refill (Manfred Spraul)
