kernel: alx driver for AR816x/AR817x Ethernet

These ethernet cards can be found onboard various x86 and
x86_64 Gigabyte mainboards since the sandy-bridge/ ivy-bridge era.

This driver supports the following QCA/"Killer" ethernet cards:

	1969:1091 - AR8161 Gigabit Ethernet
	1969:1090 - AR8162 Fast Ethernet
	1969:10A1 - AR8171 Gigabit Ethernet
	1969:10A0 - AR8172 Fast Ethernet

	1969:E091 - Killer E2200 Gigabit Ethernet
	1969:E0A1 - Killer E2400 Gigabit Ethernet
	1969:E0B1 - Killer E2500 Gigabit Ethernet

Successfully runtime tested with the onboard ethernet card of a
Gigabyte GA-H77M-D3H ivy-bridge mainboard (x86_64/EFI image):
