linux.git/drivers/net/usb/plusb.c, branch v2.6.23 Linux kernel source tree Move USB network drivers to drivers/net/usb. 2007-05-10T01:31:55+00:00 Jeff Garzik jeff@garzik.org 2007-05-10T01:31:55+00:00 5b2fc499917e5897a13add780e181b4cef197072 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.
