Paul Gortmaker says:

====================
The removal of wanrouter code was originally listed in the (now
gone) feature removal file since May 2012, and an RFC of the
deletion was posted[1] in late 2012.  The overall concept was given
an OK, but defconfig contamination, build failures, etc. meant that
it didn't quite make it into mainline for 3.8.

Since that time, Dan discovered (via code audit) a runtime bug that
proves nobody has been using this for over four years[2].  With that
new information, I think it makes sense for someone to follow through
on Joe's original RFC and get this done for the 3.9 release.

In addition to resolving the build failures of the RFC by keeping
stub headers, this also splits the change into two parts, just like
the token ring removal did.  Part #1 decouples the mainline kernel
from the expired subsystem, and part #2 does the large scale
deletion of the subsystem content.

The advantage of the above, is that a "git blame" will never lead
you to a 4000+ line deletion commit.  The large scale deletion will
never show up in a "git blame" and hence the same advantages that we
get from the "--irreversible-delete" in the review stage of "git
format-patch" are also embedded into the git history itself.  This
may seem like a moot point to some, but for those who spend a
considerable amount of time data mining in the git history, this is
probably worth doing.

I have done build tests of all[mod/yes]config for both the stage 1
(Makefile and Kconfig) and stage 2 (full driver delete) as a sanity
check, and the issues with the previously posted RFC should be gone.

Speaking of "--irreversible-delete" -- these patches were created
with that option, so if you want to use them locally, you are going
to have to pull (location below) the content instead of doing a
"git am" of the mailed out content.

We actually store the MAC address as well as the board_name here.  The
longest board_name is 75 characters so there is more than enough room
to hold the 17 character MAC and the ": " divider.  But making this
buffer larger silences a static checker warning.

====================
This series contains updates to ixgbe and e1000e.  The ixgbe patches are
a mix of fixes, cleanup and added functionality.  The first fix is for
traffic classes, where if the mapping has changed reset the NIC.  The other
ixgbe fix resolves an issue where the device lookup neglected to do a
pci_dev_put() to decrement the device reference count.

The ixgbe cleanup was done by Josh, where the auto-negotiation variables
were renamed/cleaned up and refactored.

The remaining patches are from Bruce to do additional cleanup on e1000e as
well as bump the driver version.  Most notably is the cleanup to use the
kernel IEEE MII definitions where possible instead of the local MII
definitions.
====================

For standard IEEE MII-compatible transceivers, the kernel has generic
register and bit definitions.  Use those instead of redundant local
defines.

Do not replace references of MII_CR_SPEED_10 with BMCR_SPEED10 (0x0000)
when it is not necessary (i.e. when it is bitwise OR'ed with another
value).

Some whitespace issues in the surrounding context of the above changes are
also cleaned up.

The wanrouter support was identified earlier as unused for years,
and so the previous commit totally decoupled it from the kernel,
leaving the related wanrouter files present, but totally inert.

Here we take the final step in that cleanup, by doing a wholesale
removal of these files.  The two step process is used so that the
large deletion is decoupled from the git history of files that we
still care about.

The drivers deleted here all were dependent on the Kconfig setting
CONFIG_WAN_ROUTER_DRIVERS.

A stub wanrouter.h header (kernel & uapi) are left behind so that
drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_x25iface.c continues to compile, and so that
we don't accidentally break userspace that expected these defines.

The original suggestion to delete wanrouter started earlier
with the mainline commit f0d1b3c2
("net/wanrouter: Deprecate and schedule for removal") in May 2012.

More importantly, Dan Carpenter found[1] that the driver had a
fundamental breakage introduced back in 2008, with commit
7be6065b ("netdevice wanrouter: Convert directly reference of
netdev->priv").  So we know with certainty that the code hasn't been
used by anyone willing to at least take the effort to send an e-mail
report of breakage for at least 4 years.

This commit does a decouple of the wanrouter subsystem, by going
after the Makefile/Kconfig and similar files, so that these mainline
files that we are keeping do not have the big wanrouter file/driver
deletion commit tied into their history.

Once this commit is in place, we then can remove the obsolete cyclomx
drivers and similar that have a dependency on CONFIG_WAN_ROUTER_DRIVERS.

netif_detach_device() is not called under ndo_stop, because netif_carrier_off

Supporting access to skb->pkt_type is a bit tricky if we want
to have a generic code, allowing pkt_type to be moved in struct sk_buff

pkt_type is a bit field, so compiler cannot really help us to find
its offset. Let's use a helper for this : It will throw a one time
message if pkt_type no longer starts at a byte boundary or is
no longer a 3bit field.
