routines from foo_watchdog() because foo_watchdog() is called at
interrupt context, and that's a no-no due to the way the USB stack
is currently set up.
What we do now is call the TX end of frame handler manually to clear
the completed transmission, then check the send queue and send off
any frames that are pending.
Also turned off the interrupt pipe stuff in if_aue, since it appears
to tickle a bug in the USB stack that I haven't found yet.
of the individual drivers and into the common routine ether_input().
Also, remove the (incomplete) hack for matching ethernet headers
in the ip_fw code.
The good news: net result of 1016 lines removed, and this should make
bridging now work with *all* Ethernet drivers.
The bad news: it's nearly impossible to test every driver, especially
for bridging, and I was unable to get much testing help on the mailing
lists.

This also shows that

MODULE_DEPEND(usb, usb, 1, 1, 1);

<sys/bio.h> is now a prerequisite for <sys/buf.h> but it shall
not be made a nested include according to bdes teachings on the
subject of nested includes.
Diskdrivers and similar stuff below specfs::strategy() should no
longer need to include <sys/buf.> unless they need caching of data.
Still a few bogus uses of struct buf to track down.

ioccom.h defines only implementation detail, and should therefore
only be included from the #include which defines the ioctl tags,
in other words: never include it from *.c
are two supported chips, the NetChip 1080 (only prototypes available)
and the EzLink cable. Any other cable should be supported however as they
are all very much alike (there is a difference between them wrt
performance).
It uses Netgraph.
This driver was mostly written by Doug Ambrisko and Julian Elischer and
I would like to thank Whistle for yet another contribution. And my
aplogies to them for me sitting on the driver for so long (2 months).
Also, many thanks to Reid Augustin from NetChip for providing me with a
prototype of their 1080 chip.
Be aware of the fact that this driver is very immature and has only been
tested very lightly. If someone feels like learning about Netgraph however
this is an excellent driver to start playing with.
Note that if_aue doesn't strictly depend on usb because it uses the
method interface for calls rather than using internal symbols, and
because it's a child driver of usb and therefore will not try and do
anything unless the parent usb code is loaded at some point. if_aue does
strictly depend on miibus as it will fail to link if it is missing.
(which is actually a CATC Netmate).
Gee. I don't know why people make such a fuss over supporting USB ethernet
NICs. This is easier than collecting graft.
Update the license in the rio_usb.h (now rio500_usb.h) to not be GPL.
Sorry for committing that file in the first place. The change of license
was agreed to by the original author.

* Re-implement the method dispatch to improve efficiency. The new system
takes about 40ns for a method dispatch on a 300Mhz PII which is only
10ns slower than a direct function call on the same hardware.
This changes the new-bus ABI slightly so make sure you re-compile any
driver modules which you use.
