It is preferable to group drivers by usage (net, scsi, ATA, ...) than
by bus. When reviewing drivers, the [PCI|USB|PCMCIA|...] maintainer
is probably less qualified on networking issues than a networking
maintainer. Also, from a practical standpoint, chips often
appear on multiple buses, which is why we do not put drivers into
drivers/pci/net.

To clearly state the intent of copying to linear sk_buffs, _offset being a
overly long variant but interesting for the sake of saving some bytes.

So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes
on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the
layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4
64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN...
:-)
Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network,
mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being
meaningful as offsets or pointers.

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.
To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.
Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

Different AX88772 dongles use different PHYs; the chip is capable of using
both a primary and secondary PHY, and supports an internal and external PHY.
It appears that some DUB-E100 devices use the internal PHY, so trying to use
an external one will not work (note that this is different across revisions,
as well; the "A" and "B" revs of the DUB-E100 use different PHYs!). The data
sheet for the AX88772 chip specifies that the internal PHY id will be 0x10,
so if that's read from the EEPROM, we should use that rather than attempting
to use an external PHY.
Thanks to Mitch Bradley for pointing this out!

A small typo in ax88772_bind() prevents the device from selecting the
proper PHY, leaving the device useless. The attached patch fixes this.
If this patch can be added to the 2.6.19.x series as well, that would be
helpful for end-users.

When working on the mcs7830, I noticed the need for a mutex in its
mdio_read/mdio_write functions. A related problem seems to be present
in the asix driver in the respective functions.
This introduces a mutex in the common usbnet driver and uses it
from the two hardware specific drivers.

This adds generic support for the ethtool commands get_settings,
set_settings, get_link and nway_reset to usbnet. These are now
implemented using mii functions when a low-level driver supports
mdio_read/mdio_write and does not override the usbnet ethtool
commands with its own.
Currently, this applies to the asix and the mcs7830 drivers.
I have tested it on mcs7830.

Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.

* More generi-fication of function/macro names where appropriate:
ax88772_xx() -> asix_xx()
* Reorder functions to provide more logical grouping
* AX88178 device support
* Support DLink DUB-E100 Rev B Support
* Hopefully resolve all endian-ness issues
* Use more defines for bitmask values
* Change a number of devdbg() calls to deverr() so that if DEBUG is not
defined, the error messages still get through as necessary

to reduce bloat
Now that the ASIX code is supporting more than just the AX88172 devices,
make the utility function names more generic: ax8817x_func -> asix_func.
Functions that are chip specific now indicate as such: ax88772_func.
Additionally, pull some common routines used in initialization and such
into simple functions to reduce the verbosity of certain functions such
as
the bind() routines and to make the error handling consistent across the
board.

This patch moves the ASIX AX8817x driver into its own file, just using
the "usbnet" infrastructure as a utility library.
- As with "cdc_subset" this involved minor Kconfig/kbuild tweaks,
moving code from one file to another, and exporting a few functions.
- This includes updates from Jamie Painter to add (and use) a new hook
to handle the different maximum transfer sizes for rx and tx sides.
- Also from Jamie, some bugfixes:
* MDIO byteorder (to address some PPC media negotiation problems);
* Force alignment at key spots when using ax88772 framing (on some
embedded hardware, the network stack will break otherwise);
* Address some link reset problems.
It also makes this driver use the standard (5 seconds vs half second)
control timeouts used elsewhere in USB; and wraps a few lines before
the 80th column (which previously needed it).
