Create a new header file include/net/Space.h which contains
prototype declaration of sbni_probe().

Include the new header file in drivers/net/Space.c and
drivers/net/wan/sbni.c because they use this function.

This eliminates the following warning in wan/sbni.c:

463d413cb7 drivers/net: delete old x86 variant of the seeq8005 driver
The last update to the Ethernet HowTo (over 10 years ago) listed this:

 ------------------------
   SEEQ 8005

   Status: Obsolete, Driver Name: seeq8005

   There is little information about the card included in the driver,
   and hence little information to be put here. If you have a question,
   you are probably best trying to e-mail the driver author as listed
   in the source.

   It was marked obsolete as of the 2.4 series kernels.
 ------------------------

If it was obsolete over a decade ago, the situation can not have
improved with the passage of time, so let us act on that.  Even with
today's improved search engines, I was unable to locate any real
meaningful information on the ISA implementation of this rare chip.

There are ARM and SGI variants of the driver in tree, but they do
not depend on the original x86 driver source or header file.  We
leave those non-x86 drivers to be deleted by the arch maintainers
when they decide to expire those legacy platforms as a whole.

0ffd89e48f drivers/net: delete Digital EtherWorks-3 support.
This is another one that makes sense to target for obsolescence, since
it (a)appeared pre-1995, and (b)was rather rare, and (c)did not
really have any statistically significant active linux user base.

Removing this ISA 10Mbit driver support is unlikely to be even noticed
by the user base of 3.9+ linux kernels, especially when the documentation
clearly indicates the vintage with this text:

	 "...designed to  work with all kernels > 1.1.33"

fce3cd45e6 drivers/net: delete the really obsolete 8390 based 10Mbit ISA drivers
This is an area I know all too well, after being author of several 8390
drivers, and maintainer of all 8390 drivers during a large part of their
active lifecycle.

To that end, I can say this with a reasonable degree of confidence.
The drivers deleted here represent the earliest (as in early 1990)
hardware and/or rare hardware.  The remaining hardware not deleted
here is the more modern/sane of the lot, with ISA-PnP and jumperless
"soft configuration" like the wd and smc cards had.

The original ne2000 driver (ne.c) gets a pass at this time since
AT/LANTIC based cards that could be both ne2000 or wd-like (with
shared memory) and with jumperless configuration were made in the
mid to late 1990's, and performed reasonably well for their era.

13a80cb8b7 drivers/net: delete at1700 ISA 10Mbit driver
These Fujitsu MB86965 based ISA 10Mbit cards were another of the
relatively rare cards dating from the early 1990s that for one reason
or another didn't seem to get a lot of use in linux.  So we retire it
now with a reasonable degree of confidence that it won't impact anyone.

d2477de7a6 drivers/net: delete old 8 bit ISA Racal ni5010 support.
These cards were only available in 8bit format, and in addition
they only had AUI and BNC(10-Base2) interfaces (i.e. no RJ-45).

In fact, they are so rare, that an internet search on these old
cards almost comes up empty, unless the "Micom interlan" name
is used.

This puts them in the equivalent domain as the 3c501, so there
should be no strong opposition to the driver removal, as nobody
is seriously using 3.9+ with 8 bit ISA hardware.

In doing so, the whole "ethernet/racal" category becomes empty,
so we clean up the Makefile/Kconfig and subdir appropriately.

04861c535d drivers/net: delete Racal Interlan ISA ni52 (i825xx) driver
Like the other drivers that were in the ISA i825xx family, the ni52
was rather rare, not widely used, and hence perhaps not as reliable
as the more mainstream ISA drivers that were heavily used.  Given
that, it is chosen for retirement at this time as well.

f84932d831 drivers/net: delete ISA intel eexpress and eepro i825xx drivers
These old drivers should not be confused with the very common PCI
cards that are supported by e100.c -- these older 10Mbit ISA only
drivers were not as commonly used as some of the other ISA drivers,
simply due to hardware availability and pricing.

Given the rarity of the hardware, and the subsequent less extensive
use of the drivers, it makes sense to obsolete them at this point
in time, along with other rare/experimental ISA drivers.

0e245dbaac drivers/net: delete the 3Com 3c505/3c507 intel i825xx support
For those of us who were around in the early to mid 1990's, we
will remember that the i825xx ethernet support was not something
that was considered sufficiently vetted for 24/7 use.

Folks might be inclined to use *functional* ISA hardware on some
near expired P3 ISA machines for dedicated workhorse applications,
but the odds of using (and relying on) one of these old/experimental
drivers is essentially nil.  So lets remove them.

168e06ae26 drivers/net: delete old parallel port de600/de620 drivers
The parallel port is largely replaced by USB, and even in the
day where these drivers were current, the documented speed was
less than 100kB/s.  Let us not pretend that anyone cares about
these drivers anymore, or worse - pretend that anyone is using
them on a modern kernel.

As a side bonus, this is the end of legacy parallel port ethernet,
so we get to drop the whole chunk relating to that in the legacy
Space.c file containing the non-PCI unified probe dispatch.

de8270ff46 drivers/net: delete old 8bit ISA 3c501 driver.
It was amusing that linux was able to make use of this 1980's
technology on machines long past its intended lifespan, but
it probably should go now.

To set some context, the 3c501 was designed in the 1980's to be
used on 8088 PC-XT 8bit ISA machines.  It was built using a large
number of discrete TTL components and truly looks like a relic
of the ancient past before large scale integration was common.

But from a functional point of view, the real issue, as stated
in the (also obsolete) Ethernet-HowTo, is that "...the 3c501 can
only do one thing at a time -- while you are removing one packet
from the single-packet buffer it cannot receive another packet,
nor can it receive a packet while loading a transmit packet."

You know things are not good when the Kconfig help text suggests
you make a cron job doing a ping every minute.

Hardware that old and crippled is simply not going to be used by
anyone in a time where 10 year old 100Mbit PCI cards (that are
still functional) are largely give-away items.

6e07ba3e6a drivers/net: delete 486 Apricot support
The Apricot was a 486 PC with 4MB RAM, and an on-board ethernet
via an intel i82596 hard-wired to i/o 0x300.

Those who were using linux in the 1990's will recall that the
i82596 driver was not one of the more stable or widely used
drivers of its day.  Combine that with the extremely limited
resources of the platform, and it is truly time to expire the
support for this thing.

There are some old m68k targets who were also using this chip,
so rather than poll the m68k user base, we simply cut out the
x86/Apricot support here in this commit.

complete content of the EISA probe block, so we can now remove
that block, and its hook into the unified probe.  Note that
the deleted comment mentions PCI probes, but they long since

We get rid of the orphaned EISA probe prototypes, and a couple
of left over MCA probe prototypes at the same time.

e9460a9e81 CS89x0 : add platform driver support
The CS89x0 ethernet controller is used on a number of evaluation
boards, such as the MX31ADS. The current driver has memory address and
IRQ settings for each board on which this controller is used. Driver
updates are therefore required to support other boards that also use
the CS89x0. To avoid these driver updates, a better mechanism
(platform driver support) is added to communicate the board dependent
settings to the driver.

8b6aaab8c8 m68k: macmace fixes
Fix a race condition in the transmit code, where the dma interrupt could update
the free tx buffer count concurrently and wedge the tx queue.

Fix the misuse of the rx frame status and rx frame length registers: no more
"fifo overrun" errors caused by the OFLOW bit being tested in the frame length
register (instead of the status register), and no more missed packets due to
incorrect length taken from status register (instead of the frame length
register).

Fix a panic (skb_over_panic BUG) caused by allocating and then copying an
incoming packet while the packet length register was changing.

Cut-and-paste the reset code from the powermac mace driver (mace.c), so the NIC
functions when MacOS does not initialise it (important for anyone wanting to
use the Emile boot loader).

Cut-and-paste the error counting and timeout recovery code from mace.c.

Fix over allocation of rx buffer memory (it's page order, not page count).

Converted to driver model.

Converted to DMA API.

Since I've run out of ways to make it fail, and since it performs well now,
promote the driver from EXPERIMENTAL status. Tested on both quadra 840av and
660av.

efcce83936 [PATCH] macsonic/jazzsonic network drivers update
The purpose of this patch:

- Adopt the DMA API (jazzsonic, macsonic & core driver).

- Adopt the driver model (macsonic).

This part was cribbed from jazzsonic. As a consequence, macsonic once
again works as a module. Driver model is also used by the DMA calls.

- Support 16 bit cards (macsonic & core driver, also affects jazzsonic)

This code was adapted from the mac68k linux 2.2 kernel, where it has
languished for a long time.

- Support more 32-bit mac cards (macsonic)

Also from mac68k repo.

- Zero-copy buffer handling (core driver)

Provides a nice performance improvement. The new algorithm incidentally
helped to replace the old Jazz DMA code.

The patch was tested on a variety of macs (several 32-bit quadra built-in
NICs, a 16-bit LC PDS NIC and a 16-bit comm-slot NIC), and also on MIPS
Jazz.

504ff16cec [PATCH] tms380tr: move to DMA API
This patch makes tms380tr use the new DMA API.  Now that on Alpha, this API
also supports bus master DMA for ISA (platform) devices, i changed the
driver to use this new API.

This also works around a bug in the firmware loader: The example provided
in Documentation/firmware_class no longer works, as the firmware loader now
calls get_kobj_path_length() and the kernel promptly oopses, as the
home-grown device doesn't have a parent.  Of course, this doesn't happen
with a "real" device which has its bus (or pseudo bus in the case of
platform) as parent.

Converted tms380tr to use new DMA API:
  - proteon.c, skisa.c: use platform pseudo bus to create a struct device
  - Space.c: delete init hooks
  - abyss.c, tmspci.c: pass struct device to tms380tr.c
  - tms380tr.c, tms380tr.h: new DMA API, use real device fo firmware loader
