pcnet32: Fix PCnet32 performance bug on non-coherent architecutres



The PCnet32 driver always passed the the size of the largest possible packet
to the pci_dma_sync_single_for_cpu and pci_dma_sync_single_for_device.
This results in a fairly large "colateral damage" in the caches and makes
the flush operation itself much slower.  On a system with a 40MHz CPU this
patch increases network bandwidth by about 12%.
