This reverts commit a6238f21736af3f47bdebf3895f477f5f23f1af9

Appletalk got some patches to fix up the BLK usage in it in the
network tree, so this removal isn't needed.

For all I know, Appletalk is dead, the only reasonable
use right now would be nostalgia, and that can be served
well enough by old kernels. The code is largely not
in a bad shape, but it still uses the big kernel lock,
and nobody seems motivated to change that.

FWIW, the last release of MacOS that supported Appletalk
was MacOS X 10.5, made in 2007, and it has been abandoned
by Apple with 10.6. Using TCP/IP instead of Appletalk has
been supported since MacOS 7.6, which was released in
1997 and is able to run on most of the legacy hardware.

All drivers are already converted to new net_device_ops API
and nobody uses old API anymore.

With net_device_ops if set_mac_address is null, then error
is -EOPNOTSUPPORTED.

Since hardware header operations are part of the protocol class
not the device instance, make them into a separate object and
save memory.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
