Heh... FWIW, forcedeth patch (sent your way about two weeks ago) also
belongs in the same set. If you need a resend - tell...
There's another pile in drivers/net/wireless, but that's for linville to
forward when he gets around to it. Pure annotation patches belong to
past-2.6.24 merge.
I also have starfire and epic100 fixes, but that'll have to wait until
I get around to putting the cards into sparc box (mcast breakage for
starfire and full-driver one for epic100; since nobody had cared for
the latter since 2.3.late, well...)
I think I'll have an ipg fix for you tomorrow, but I want to RTFM first
to make sure that it makes sense. And there are several interesting
issues in atl1, netxen and cxgb3, but those will have to wait for when
I get around to asking maintainers just what the hell did they mean those
to do.
FWIW, drivers/net is fairly noise-free wrt sparse endianness warnings
in my tree; the main exceptions are prism54 (oid_mgt.c and the nightmares
it pulls) and skfp (AIX-shared vendor driver; 'nuff said, IMO).
BTW, if you still have any documentation for xircom_cb from your fighting
tulip-related stuff, it would be welcome - there are some oddities with
rx ring handling (assuming that we care about that driver at all and it's
not on the way out, that is).
