16adf5d079 usbnet: Remove over-broad module alias from zaurus.
This module and a bunch of dependancies are getting loaded on several
of laptops I have (probably picking up the mobile broadband device),
that have nothing to do with zaurus. Matching by class without
any vendor/device pair isn't the right thing to do here, as it
will prevent any other driver from correctly binding to it.
(Or in the absense of a driver, will just waste time & memory by
 unnecessarily loading modules)

c261344d3c usbnet: use eth%d name for known ethernet devices
The documentation for the USB ethernet devices suggests that
only some devices are supposed to use usb0 as the network interface
name instead of eth0. The logic used there, and documented in
Kconfig for CDC is that eth0 will be used when the mac address
is a globally assigned one, but usb0 is used for the locally
managed range that is typically used on point-to-point links.

Unfortunately, this has caused a lot of pain on the smsc95xx
device that is used on the popular pandaboard without an
EEPROM to store the MAC address, which causes the driver to
call random_ether_address().

Obviously, there should be a proper MAC addressed assigned to
the device, and discussions are ongoing about how to solve
this, but this patch at least makes sure that the default
interface naming gets a little saner and matches what the
user can expect based on the documentation, including for
new devices.

The approach taken here is to flag whether a device might be a
point-to-point link with the new FLAG_POINTTOPOINT setting in
the usbnet driver_info. A driver can set both FLAG_POINTTOPOINT
and FLAG_ETHER if it is not sure (e.g. cdc_ether), or just one
of the two.  The usbnet framework only looks at the MAC address
for device naming if both flags are set, otherwise it trusts the
flag.

52c0326bea zaurus: add usb id for motomagx phones
The Motorola MOTOMAGX phones (Z6, E8, Zn5 so far) are providing
combined ACM/BLAN USB configuration. Since it has Vendor Specific
class, the corresponding drivers (cdc-acm, zaurus) can't find it just
by interface info. This patch adds usb id so the zaurus driver can
properly handle this combined device.

3692e94f15 Move usbnet.h and rndis_host.h to include/linux/usb
Move headers usbnet.h and rndis_host.h to include/linux/usb and fix includes
for drivers/net/usb modules. Headers are moved because rndis_wlan will be
outside drivers/net/usb in drivers/net/wireless and yet need these headers.

5b2fc49991 Move USB network drivers to drivers/net/usb.
It is preferable to group drivers by usage (net, scsi, ATA, ...) than
by bus.  When reviewing drivers, the [PCI|USB|PCMCIA|...] maintainer
is probably less qualified on networking issues than a networking
maintainer.  Also, from a practical standpoint, chips often
appear on multiple buses, which is why we do not put drivers into
drivers/pci/net.
