As we discussed on #linux-sunxi, it may be davicom IP it also may not be.
Register address do not match at all, so it could be that it is only partial
davicom IP at best.

I therefore suggest we put it in kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/allwinner/ and name
the modules/files sunxi-emac.c and sunxi-gmac.c (for the new gigabit mac in the
newest SoC's)...


Thanks,
Oliver
