[PATCH] e1000: fix for dhcp issue

Parse outgoing packets in e1000_transfer_dhcp_info as raw packet even if
protocol bits are set.  pump, for instance causes kernel panic on some
systems, if parsed via udp header.

Thanks to Derrell Lipman <Derrell.Lipman@BacklotTech.com> for reporting and
testing.
