net: ezchip: fix address space confusion in nps_enet.c



The nps_enet driver happily mixes virtual, physical and __iomem
addresses, which are all different depending on the architecture
and configuration.  That causes a warning when building the code
on ARM with LPAE mode enabled:

drivers/net/ethernet/ezchip/nps_enet.c: In function 'nps_enet_send_frame':
drivers/net/ethernet/ezchip/nps_enet.c:370:13: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast]

but will also fail to work for other reasons.

In this patch, I'm trying to change the code to use only normal
kernel pointers, which I assume is what the author actually meant:

* For reading or writing a 32-bit word that may be unaligned when
  an SKB contains unaligned data, I'm using get_unaligned/put_unaligned()
  rather than memcpy_fromio/toio.

* For converting a u8 pointer to a u32 pointer, I use a cast rather
  than the incorrect virt_to_phys.

* For copying a couple of bytes from one place to another while respecting
  alignment, I use memcpy instead of memcpy_toio.
