<jgarzik@mandrakesoft.com> (02/09/29 1.704)
   [net drivers] add optional duplex-changed arg to generic_mii_ioctl helper

<jgarzik@mandrakesoft.com> (02/09/29 1.703)
   [net drivers] Remove 'dev' argument from generic_mii_ioctl helper

<jgarzik@mandrakesoft.com> (02/09/29 1.702)
   Use new MII lib helper generic_mii_ioctl in several net drivers:
   8139too, epic100, fealnx, sundance and via-rhine.
   
   In the process, several of these net drivers gained MII ioctl
   locking fixes simply by virtue of being brought in line with
   standardized code.

<jgarzik@mandrakesoft.com> (02/09/29 1.701)
   Add MII lib helper func generic_mii_ioctl, use it in 8139cp net drvr

<jgarzik@mandrakesoft.com> (02/09/29 1.700)
   [net drivers] Rename MII lib API member, s/duplex_lock/force_media/,
   and update all drivers that reference this struct member.

<jgarzik@mandrakesoft.com> (02/09/28 1.699)
   [net drivers] MII lib update:
   * add boolean 'init_media' arg to mii_check_media
   * update all callers (just 8139cp, for now)

<jgarzik@mandrakesoft.com> (02/09/28 1.698)

<jgarzik@mandrakesoft.com> (02/09/28 1.694)
   sundance net drvr: fix reset_tx logic
   (contributed by Edward Peng @ D-Link, cleaned up by me)

<edward_peng@dlink.com.tw> (02/09/28 1.693)
   update sundance driver to support building on older kernel:
   conditionally include crc32.h, ethtool.h, mii.h, and compat.h
   if built outside the stock 2.4.x kernel.

<achirica@ttd.net> (02/09/28 1.692)

   [note: more work needs to be done here, but this is better than nothing -jgarzik]

<achirica@ttd.net> (02/09/21 1.679)
   airo wireless: use ETH_ALEN constant where appropriate

<achirica@ttd.net> (02/09/21 1.678)
   sync airo wireless driver with 2.5:
   * include linux/tqueue.h
   * add LINUX_VERSION_CODE check
   * s/int flags/unsigned long flags/
   * whitespace cleanups

<jgarzik@mandrakesoft.com> (02/09/20 1.661.6.24)
   Add new MII lib functions mii_check_link, mii_check_media.
   Use them in 8139cp net driver.

<felipewd@terra.com.br> (02/09/20 1.661.6.23)
   Support get-MII-data ioctls in 8139cp net driver

<jgarzik@mandrakesoft.com> (02/09/19 1.661.6.22)
   update eepro100 net driver to use standard MII phy API/lib,
   when implementing ethtool media ioctls.
     
   No behavior should change with this patch (except the ethtool media
   ioctls now work, of course)
     
   Also, re-format comments to the right of the private struct to line up.

<jgarzik@mandrakesoft.com> (02/09/19 1.661.6.21)
   Update eepro100 net driver's mdio_{read,write} functions
   to take 'struct net_device *' not 'long' as their first
   argument.  This makes eepro100 compatible with the standard
   MII ethtool API, preparing it for that support.
     
   No functional changes should occur with this patch, if anything
   changes at all it is a bug.  (and testing shows no changes...)
