Risto Suominen b77e522884 de2104x: support for systems lacking cache coherence
Add a configurable Descriptor Skip Length for systems that lack cache
coherence.

(akpm: I think this should be done as a module parameter, not a
compile-tinme option)

Adrian Bunk fa6557aff4 remove the obsolete xircom_tulip_cb driver
The xircom_tulip_cb driver has been replaced the xircom_cb driver, and
since it depended on BROKEN_ON_SMP it e.g. was no longer present in many
distribution kernels.

This patch therefore removes it.

Adrian Bunk 57ce45dd16 [NET]: Remove references to net-modules.txt.
When I removed net-modules.txt because it only contained ancient
information I missed that many Kconfig entries pointed to this ancient
information.

Randy Dunlap bf45abeb1d NAPI: kconfig prompt and deleted doc file
- make the kconfig NAPI option prompt consistent across all net drivers
  (other than EXPERIMENTAL; can it now be removed also, or is the new
  napi_struct implementation now EXPERIMENTAL ?)
- remove comment about the now-deleted NAPI_HOWTO.txt file
- clean up typos in Tulip NAPI & Interrupt Mitigation

Jan Engelhardt d1c0a65fb5 Use menuconfig objects II - netdev (general+100mbit)
CONFIG_NETDEVICES, CONFIG_NET_ETHERNET:
Change Kconfig objects from "menu, config" into "menuconfig" so
that the user can disable the whole feature without having to
enter the menu first.

CONFIG_SMC9194:
Move it so that it appears correctly in menuconfig.

Peer Chen 4689ced99b [netdrvr] add 'uli526x' driver (a tulip clone)
We want to extract our LAN card driver from tulip core driver and
make a new file uli526x.c at tulip folder, because we have added
some ethtool interface support and non-eprom support in our driver
and may be other change in the futher.

If our controllers support are still contained in the tulip core
driver, I think it'll increase the complexity of maintenance, you
know, tulip core driver include several files and support so many
other controllers.  Furthermore, I tested the newest kernel 2.6.12
and I found the tulip driver can not work on our lan controller, and
I no time to debug it, so I aspired want to make a single uli526x.c
file just for our controllers.  Could you help us remove the ULi
m5261/m5263 lan controller support from tulip core driver and add
the new single uli526x.c file for us?

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
