Subject: [PATCH 0/5] drivers: net: usb: rtl8150: bug fixing and code cleanup

From: Petko Manolov <[email protected]>

This patch series adds rtl8150.h, which contains structure and constant
definitons formerly found in rtl8150.c, removes socket buffer
pre-allocated pool and uses dynamically allocated memory for the
asynchronous URB requests, thus avoids clobbering the previously scheduled
for update value.

This patch series is against 'net' tree.

'net' tree takes fixes. The cleanup / fix ratio is imho a bit high
in this series. You may submit the fix part now and wait until
davem merges 'net' into 'net-next' to submit big cleanups against
net-next.

Well, i did ask which tree to use as a base. It may seem like a lot, but
these changes are trivial. If David decide to schedule the patches for
3.11 it won't break my heart.
