[netdrvr] Remove Linux-specific changelogs from several Becker template 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>
