ibmveth: Enable TCP checksum offload
This patchset enables TCP checksum offload support for IPV4
on ibmveth. This completely eliminates the generation and checking of
the checksum for packets that are completely virtual and never
touch a physical network. A simple TCP_STREAM netperf run on
a virtual network with maximum mtu set yielded a ~30% increase
in throughput. This feature is enabled by default on systems that
support it, but can be disabled with a module option.

[E1000E]: New pci-express e1000 driver (currently for ICH9 devices only)
This driver implements support for the ICH9 on-board LAN ethernet
device. The device is similar to ICH8.
The driver encompasses code to support 82571/2/3, es2lan and ICH8
devices as well, but those device IDs are disabled and will be
"lifted" from the e1000 driver over one at a time once this driver
receives some more live time.
Changes to the last snapshot posted are exclusively in the internal

[PATCH] libertas: reorganize and simplify init sequence
This patch moves all firmware load responsibility into the interface-specific
code and gets rid of the firmware pointer in the generic card structure. It
also removes 3 fairly unecessary callbacks: hw_register_dev, hw_unregister_dev,
and hw_prog_firmware. It also makes the init sequence from interface
probe functions more logical, as there are paired add/remove and start/stop
calls into generic libertas code.
Because the USB driver code uses the same TX URB callback for both firmware
upload (where the generic libertas structure isn't initialized yet) and for
normal operation (where it is), some bits of USB code have to deal with
'priv' being NULL. All USB firmware upload bits have been changed to not
require 'priv' at all, but simply the USB card structure.

different rate values and names throughout the driver. He has
written a patch to change it and tweaked it after some pretty wild
ideas from my side. But the discussion helped me to understand the
problem better and I think I have nailed it down with this patch.
A zd-rate will consist from now on of a four-bit "pure" rate value
and a modulation type flag as used in the ZD1211 control set used
for packet transmission. This is consistent with the usage in the
zd_rates table. If possible these zd-rates should be used in the
