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.

<title>USB: usbnet reports minidriver name through ethtool</title>

<content type='text'>
Update "usbnet" so that ethtool reports the name of the minidriver in use
(e.g. asix, cdc_ether, dm9601, rndis_host) instead of "usbnet".  This is a
better match to how other network drivers work, resolving a minor open issue.

This cleans up some error handling paths in usbnet device probing;
one of them could cause oopsing, e.g. with some RNDIS devices.

It also removes some extraneous whitespace.

<title>[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h</title>

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).

<title>USB: use MII hooks only if CONFIG_MII is enabled</title>

<id>urn:sha1:18ee91fa9815fa3bb4e51cdcb8229bd0a0f11a70</id>
<content type='text'>
Fix mcs7830 patch

The recent mcs7830 update to make the MII support sharable goofed various
pre-existing configurations in two ways:

  - it made the usbnet infrastructure reference MII symbols even
    when they're not needed in the kernel being built

  - it didn't enable MII along with the mcs7830 minidriver

This patch fixes these two problems.

However, there does seem to be a Kconfig reverse dependency bug in that MII
gets wrongly enabled in some cases (like USBNET=y and USBNET_MII=n); I think
I've noticed that same problem in other situations too.  So the result can
mean kernels being bloated by stuff that's needlessly enabled ... better
than wrongly being disabled, but contributing to bloat.
