Move USB network drivers to drivers/net/usb.

2007-05-10T01:31:55+00:00

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.

PCI: Cleanup the includes of

2007-05-03T02:02:35+00:00

I noticed that many source files include  while they do
not appear to need it. Here is an attempt to clean it all up.

In order to find all possibly affected files, I searched for all
files including  but without any other occurence of "pci"
or "PCI". I removed the include statement from all of these, then I
compiled an allmodconfig kernel on both i386 and x86_64 and fixed the
false positives manually.

My tests covered 66% of the affected files, so there could be false
positives remaining. Untested files are:

arch/alpha/kernel/err_common.c
arch/alpha/kernel/err_ev6.c
arch/alpha/kernel/err_ev7.c
arch/ia64/sn/kernel/huberror.c
arch/ia64/sn/kernel/xpnet.c

arch/ppc/syslib/ppc4xx_sgdma.c
arch/sh64/mach-cayman/iomap.c

drivers/video/stifb.c
drivers/video/valkyriefb.c
include/asm-arm/arch-ixp4xx/dma.h
sound/oss/au1550_ac97.c

I would welcome test reports for these files. I am fine with removing
the untested files from the patch if the general opinion is that these
changes aren't safe. The tested part would still be nice to have.

Note that this patch depends on another header fixup patch I submitted
to LKML yesterday:
  [PATCH] scatterlist.h needs types.h

USB: usbnet reports minidriver name through ethtool

2007-04-27T20:28:40+00:00

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.

USB: rndis_host, various cleanups

2007-04-27T20:28:40+00:00

Cleanups to the rndis_host code, and a tweak that helps talking to
PXA hardware.  Mostly from Ole André Vadla Ravnås 

  - Prevent SET_INTERFACE requests, they give PXA hardware bad indigestion
  - For paranoia, null a pointer after freeing its data
  - Wrap up ActiveSync oddities for RNDIS_QUERY in one routine
  - Use that wrapper when getting the Ethernet address
  - Whitespace fixes

Plus add a comment noting the open issues about some RNDIS clients still
needing TBD kinds of browbeating to accept non-jumbogram packets.

USB: fix catc error handling

2007-04-27T20:28:38+00:00

this driver ignores errors while starting the transmit queue. It will
never be reported stopped as the completion handler won't run
and it will never be started again as it will be considered started.
This patch adds error handling.
