Subject: [PATCH 00/39] mv643xx_eth: complete overhaul
Date: Tuesday, June 3, 2008 - 7:02 am

This patch set completely overhauls the mv643xx_eth driver.

The most important change is probably the eradication of the hardware
abstraction layer code in the driver, but there's also a bunch of new
features, such as initial steps towards multiple RX/TX queues and TX
bandwidth control (global and per queue), proper support for newer
mv643xx_eth versions (where some of the registers have moved around a
bit), and support for operation without a PHY, e.g. in cases where the
ethernet port is directly (over (R)GMII) connected to an ethernet
switch chip.

Any feedback appreciated.
