net-next is closed at the moment, but these look like reasonable
changes, I would just replace patch 7 with a patch that entirely drops
the driver specific version since that does not serve any purpose in the
context of an in-kernel driver.

Some nice clean-ups that you should also consider for future changes:

- reduce the duplication of tests/conditions in korina_send_packet(), a
lot of them are testing for the same things and setting the same
descriptor bits

- move korina_tx() to a NAPI context instead of working from hard
interrupt context

- get rid of the MIPS dma_cache_* calls and instead properly use the
DMA-API to allocate descriptors and invalidate/write-back skb->data
