Remove old lguest bus and drivers.

2007-10-23T05:49:55+00:00

This gets rid of the lguest bus, drivers and DMA mechanism, to make
way for a generic virtio mechanism.

Net driver using virtio

2007-10-23T05:49:54+00:00

The network driver uses two virtqueues: one for input packets and one
for output packets.  This has nice locking properties (ie. we don't do
any for recv vs send).

TODO:
	1) Big packets.
	2) Multi-client devices (maybe separate driver?).
	3) Resolve freeing of old xmit skbs (Christian Borntraeger)

dgrs: remove from build, config, and maintainer list

2007-10-10T23:53:44+00:00

Stop building and configuring driver for Digi RightSwitch, which was
never actually sold to anyone, and remove it from MAINTAINERS.

In response to an investigation into the firmware of the "Digi Rightswitch"
driver, Andres Salomon discovered:

Since the product never reached market, clearly nobody is using this orphaned
driver.

Device tree aware EMAC driver

2007-10-10T23:51:52+00:00

Based on BenH's earlier work, this is a new version of the EMAC driver
for the built-in ethernet found on PowerPC 4xx embedded CPUs.  The
same ASIC is also found in the Axon bridge chip.  This new version is
designed to work in the arch/powerpc tree, using the device tree to
probe the device, rather than the old and ugly arch/ppc OCP layer.

This driver is designed to sit alongside the old driver (that lies in
drivers/net/ibm_emac and this one in drivers/net/ibm_newemac).  The
old driver is left in place to support arch/ppc until arch/ppc itself
reaches its final demise (not too long now, with luck).

This driver still has a number of things that could do with cleaning
up, but I think they can be fixed up after merging.  Specifically:
	- Should be adjusted to properly use the dma mapping API.
Axon needs this.
	- Probe logic needs reworking, in conjuction with the general
probing code for of_platform devices.  The dependencies here between
EMAC, MAL, ZMII etc. make this complicated.  At present, it usually
works, because we initialize and register the sub-drivers before the
EMAC driver itself, and (being in driver code) runs after the devices
themselves have been instantiated from the device tree.
