In porting the mv643xx ethernet driver for use by PPC, I modified it
to use the platform device interface, fixed the hardware checksum support
and did some miscellaneous bug fixes and cleanups.

I'll follow up with these six patches:
	
 1 Remove redundant or useless code.
 2 Replace fixed count spins with waits on hardware status bits
 3 Fix code to enable hardware checksum generation for TX packets
 4 Convert from pci_map_* to dma_map_* interface
 5 Add support for platform device interface
 6 Add support for several configurable parameters via platform device

Of these patches, the only one that changes the driver interface is patch 5.

I don't have any MIPS hardware, so I'd appreciate testing by those who do.

I have some additional cleanups, but I want to get these in the queue
or at least get feedback first.

Thanks,
-Dale Farnsworth
