27a884dc3c [SK_BUFF]: Convert skb->tail to sk_buff_data_t
So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes
on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the
layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4
64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN...
:-)

Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network,
mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being
meaningful as offsets or pointers.

c1d2bbe1cd [SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_reset_network_header(skb)
For the common, open coded 'skb->nh.raw = skb->data' operation, so that we can
later turn skb->nh.raw into a offset, reducing the size of struct sk_buff in
64bit land while possibly keeping it as a pointer on 32bit.

This one touches just the most simple case, next will handle the slightly more
"complex" cases.

4c13eb6657 [ETH]: Make eth_type_trans set skb->dev like the other *_type_trans
One less thing for drivers writers to worry about.

b5284e5aa9 [HDLC] Fix dev->header_cache_update having a random value.
Switching HDLC devices from Ethernet-framing mode caused stale ethernet
function assignments within net_device.

eb2a2fd91f [PATCH] Modularize generic HDLC
This patch enables building of individual WAN protocol support
routines (parts of generic HDLC) as separate modules.
All protocol-private definitions are moved from hdlc.h file
to protocol drivers. User-space interface and interface
between generic HDLC and underlying low-level HDLC drivers
are unchanged.

c2ce920468 [WAN]: converting generic HDLC to use netif_dormant*()
This patch converts generic HDLC (and WAN drivers using it) from
hdlc_set_carrier() to netif_dormant*() interface.
WAN hardware drivers should now use netif_carrier_on|off() like
other network drivers.

1f7bad72c0 [PATCH] Generic HDLC WAN drivers - disable netif_carrier_off()
As we are currently unable to fix the problem with carrier and protocol
state signaling in net core I've to disable netif_carrier_off()
calls used by WAN protocol drivers. The attached patch should make
them working again.

The remaining netif_carrier_*() calls in hdlc_fr.c are fine as they
don't touch the physical device.

b3dd65f958 [PATCH] Generic HDLC update
The attached patch updates generic HDLC to version 1.18.
FR Cisco LMI production-tested. Please apply to Linux 2.6. Thanks.

Changes:
- doc updates
- added Cisco LMI support to Frame-Relay code
- cleaned hdlc_fr.c a bit, removed some orphaned #defines etc.
- fixed a problem with non-functional LMI in FR DCE mode.
- changed diagnostic messages to better conform to FR standards
- all protocols: information about carrier changes (DCD line) is now
  printed to kernel logs.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
