In preparation for a future atl2 driver for the Atheros L2 10/100 chip,
we propose to move the existing atl1 driver to a new directory
(drivers/net/atlx), then split out functions and definitions that both
atl1 and atl2 can share. The final structure will look like this:
drivers/net/atl1 deleted
drivers/net/atlx new
drivers/net/atlx/atl1.c atl1-specific functions
drivers/net/atlx/atl1.h atl1-specific definitions
drivers/net/atlx/atlx.c atl1-atl2 shared functions
drivers/net/atlx/atlx.h atl1-atl2 shared definitions
The first two patches submitted in this patchset accomplish the
relocation by moving the atl1 driver over to drivers/net/atlx, then
splitting out shareable functions and definitions. Some transitory
hackery will be present until the atl2 merge. Please overlook it for
now.
The remaining 8 patches provide some cleanup and minor functionality
changes, the most important of which is a fix to our long-broken TSO
capability.
The "conform to vendor driver" patches submitted on 31 December 2007
have been dropped.
