I'm not applying this patch nor the one that does the
actual split up.

Single file drivers are so much easier to maintain and
hack on, multi-file drivers are heavily discouraged.

If I want to change some structure member in a multi-file
driver I have go over seperate files instead of doing a
single search and replace operation in a single editing
buffer.

Drivers like e1000, cxgb3 (especially cxgb3!) are such a pain
in the ass to study and make changes to for this reason.  Please
don't add myri10ge to this group.
