Since netbk_gop_skb copies the header to the start of the page, the count of slots required for the header should be based solely on the header size. This problem is easy to reproduce if a VIF is bridged to a USB 3G modem device as the skb->data value always starts near the end of the first page.

Rather than switching each instance to specify these fields explicitly, introduce a macro to simplify this. Eliminate further redundancy by allowing the drvname argument to DEFINE_XENBUS_DRIVER() to be blank (in which case the first entry from the ID table will be used for .driver.name). Also eliminate the questionable xenbus_register_{back,front}end() wrappers - their sole remaining purpose was the checking of the 'owner' field, proper setting of which shouldn't be an issue anymore when the macro gets used. v2: Restore DRV_NAME for the driver name in xen-pciback.
