gianfar: Fix skb allocation strategy

Browse Source 
gianfar was unable to handle failed skb allocation for rx buffers, so
we were spinning until it succeeded.  Actually, it was worse--we were
spinning for a long time, and then silently failing.  Instead, we take
Stephen Hemminger's suggestion to try the allocation earlier, and drop the
packet if it failed.

We also make a couple of tweaks to how buffer descriptors are set up.
