With centralized MTU checking, there's nothing productive done by
eth_change_mtu that isn't already done in dev_set_mtu, so mark it as
deprecated and remove all usage of it in the kernel. All callers have been
audited for calls to alloc_etherdev* or ether_setup directly, which means
they all have a valid dev->min_mtu and dev->max_mtu. Now eth_change_mtu
prints out a netdev_warn about being deprecated, for the benefit of
out-of-tree drivers that might be utilizing it.
Of note, dvb_net.c actually had dev->mtu = 4096, while using
eth_change_mtu, meaning that if you ever tried changing it's mtu, you
couldn't set it above 1500 anymore. It's now getting dev->max_mtu also set
to 4096 to remedy that.

This howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configure
ISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementation
of PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point where
it has been well over a decade since I last updated it. And there is
no value in anyone else taking over updating it either.
However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate text
from one Kconfig file into the next. We are not doing end users any
favours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it with
fire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread.
No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text.

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives
and hence don't need to include <linux/init.h>. Most are just a
left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to
code getting copied from one driver to the next.
This covers everything under drivers/net except for wireless, which
has been submitted separately.

The driver core clears the driver data to NULL after device_release

Emitting netdev_alloc_skb and netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align OOM
messages is unnecessary as there is already a dump_stack
after allocation failures.
Other trivial changes around these removals:
Convert a few comparisons of pointer to 0 to !pointer.
Change flow to remove unnecessary label.
Remove now unused variable.

Here is the big driver core merge for 3.9-rc1
There are two major series here, both of which touch lots of drivers all
over the kernel, and will cause you some merge conflicts:
- add a new function called devm_ioremap_resource() to properly be
able to check return values.
- remove CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL
If you need me to provide a merged tree to handle these resolutions,
please let me know.
Other than those patches, there's not much here, some minor fixes and
updates.

The last update to the Ethernet HowTo (over 10 years ago) listed this:
------------------------
SEEQ 8005
Status: Obsolete, Driver Name: seeq8005
There is little information about the card included in the driver,
and hence little information to be put here. If you have a question,
you are probably best trying to e-mail the driver author as listed
in the source.
It was marked obsolete as of the 2.4 series kernels.
------------------------
If it was obsolete over a decade ago, the situation can not have
improved with the passage of time, so let us act on that. Even with
today's improved search engines, I was unable to locate any real
meaningful information on the ISA implementation of this rare chip.
There are ARM and SGI variants of the driver in tree, but they do
not depend on the original x86 driver source or header file. We
leave those non-x86 drivers to be deleted by the arch maintainers
when they decide to expire those legacy platforms as a whole.

If ndo_validate_addr is set to the generic eth_validate_addr
function there is no point in calling is_valid_ether_addr
from driver ndo_open if ndo_open is not used elsewhere in
the driver.
With this change is_valid_ether_addr will be called from the
generic eth_validate_addr function. So there should be no change
in the actual behavior.
