  • We now have struct net_device_stats embedded in struct net_device,
    and the default ->get_stats() hook does the obvious thing for us.

    Run through drivers/net/* and remove the driver-local storage of
    statistics, and driver-local ->get_stats() hook where applicable.

    This was just the low-hanging fruit in drivers/net; plenty more drivers
    remain to be updated.

  • Remove the assumption that driver_register() returns the number of devices
    bound to the driver. In fact, it returns zero for success or a negative
    error value.

    dio_module_init() used the device count to automatically unregister and
    unload drivers that found no devices. That might have worked at one time,
    but has been broken for some time because dio_register_driver() returned
    either a negative error or a positive count (never zero). So it could only
    unregister on failure, when it's not needed anyway.

    This functionality could be resurrected in individual drivers by counting
    devices in their .probe() methods.

  • 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!
