Don't reference the maxlen and flags fields in the ring control blocks

as separate 16-bit entities.  Some of the ring control blocks are
in NIC memory, so they must be referenced using 32-bit accesses.
Smaller accesses have been observed to fail under some conditions.
This caused the rings to be set up wrong, leading to writes by the
card outside of the intended bounds of the rings.  This problem was
diagnosed by Michael Barthelow.  Don Bowman submitted a patch which
fixed the problem using a slightly different approach.

Reference ring control blocks in NIC memory using a pointer to
volatile.

Parenthesize the BGE_HOSTADDR macro definition properly.
