Andy,
I can't find a single example of a devres_* call in
drivers/net/ethernet/*. Does any networking code exist that we can look at
as an example for conversion to the devres API?

devres API usually means managed version of the functions that used
mostly at probe() stage.
For example, devm_*() or pcim_*() calls.

It's also called managed device API. In fact, I've never heard it named devres API.

WBR, Sergei
