Title says it all; the 2.4 "usbnet" is missing features and fixes,
this patch makes the delta from 2.6 be pretty small.

Its Config.in menu now looks more like 2.6, with per-minidriver
config options.  This matters mostly since the AX8817X driver will
no longer be hidden (it's good for getting good 100BaseT speeds
using EHCI).

On 2.6, "usbnet" handles CDC Ethernet ... so this patch disables
"CDCEther", which may exceed some folk's expectations of what
should happen in a "stable" kernel.  However:  (a) it's what Zaurus
users have needed to do anyway (Zaurus claims CDC support, but lies),
(b) this seems to work well on 2.6 systems, better on some hardware
than "CDCEther", and (c) the CDCEther maintainer (GregKH) seemed
to think making "usbnet" do this was OK last time this came up.

If you use "usbnet" or especially "CDCEther", and have the time
to apply, please give this a whirl ... I don't think there should
be many issues, there's not a lot of 2.4-specific code here.
