A lot of code is dedicated to giving drivers the
ability to use cfg80211's wext handlers without
completely converting. However, only orinoco is
currently using this, and it is only partially
using it.
We reduce the size of both the source and binary
by removing those that nobody needs. If a driver
shows up that needs it during conversion, we can
add back those that are needed.

This driver uses information from the self member of the pci_bus struct to
get information regarding the bridge to which the PCIe device is attached.
Unfortunately, this member is not established on all architectures, which
leads to a kernel oops.
Skipping the entire block that uses the self member to determine the bridge
vendor will only affect RTL8192DE devices as that driver sets the ASPM support
flag differently when the bridge vendor is Intel. If the self member is
available, there is no functional change.

I noticed that you took some time back in late 2009 to 'consolidate' the
split format-strings present in the bonding driver at the time and I've
decided I'm fine to leave them the way they are. The main point of my
patch was to change the output and I would like to get that included.
Here is my updated patch...
Subject: [PATCH net-next-2.6 v2] bonding: reduce noise during init
Many are using sysfs to configure bonding rather than module options, so
there is no need for bonding to throw this warning in normal cases.
Keep the message around when debugging is enabled as it might be useful
for someone desperate enough to enable debugging, but eliminate it
otherwise.

When a bond contains a device where one name is the subset of another
(eth1 and eth10, for example), one cannot properly set the primary
device or the currently active device.
This was reported and based on work by Takuma Umeya. I also verified
the problem and tested that this fix resolves it.
V2: A few did not like the the current code or my changes, so I
refactored bonding_store_primary and bonding_store_active_slave to be a
bit cleaner, dropped the use of strnicmp since we did not really need
the comparison to be case insensitive, and formatted the input string
from sysfs so a comparison to IFNAMSIZ could be used.
I also discovered an error in bonding_store_active_slave that would
modify bond->primary_slave rather than bond->curr_active_slave before
forcing the bonding driver to choose a new active slave.
V3: Actually sending the proper patch....

Pktgen attempts to transmit shared skbs to net devices, which can't be used by
some drivers as they keep state information in skbs. This patch adds a flag
marking drivers as being able to handle shared skbs in their tx path. Drivers
are defaulted to being unable to do so, but calling ether_setup enables this
flag, as 90% of the drivers calling ether_setup touch real hardware and can
handle shared skbs. A subsequent patch will audit drivers to ensure that the
flag is set properly
