[netdrvr] Remove Linux-specific changelogs from several Becker template drivers
When in-kernel net drivers branched from Donald Becker's vanilla driver set, in the days before BitKeeper and git, a driver changelog was maintained in the driver source code. These days, the kernel's changelog is far superior and much more accurate, so the in-driver changelogs are removed. Another relic of the Becker/kernel split was version numbering, using "foo-LKx.y.z" notation, resulting in weird version numbers like "1.17b-LK1.1.9". These drivers are for older hardware, and see few changes these days, so the version numbers were all bumped to something more simple. Finally, in xircom_tulip_cb specifically, an additional cleanup removes the always-enabled CARDBUS cpp macro. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

25 Linux kernel modifications:
26
27 Version 1.0.1:
28 - Spinlock fixes
29 - Bug fixes and better intr performance (Tjeerd)
30 Version 1.0.2:
31 - Now reads correct MAC address from eeprom
32 Version 1.0.3:
33 - Eliminate redundant priv->tx_full flag
34 - Call netif_start_queue from dev->tx_timeout
35 - wmb() in start_tx() to flush data
36 - Update Tx locking
37 - Clean up PCI enable (davej)
38 Version 1.0.4:
39 - Merge Donald Becker's natsemi.c version 1.07
40 Version 1.0.5:
41 - { fill me in }
42 Version 1.0.6:
43 * ethtool support (jgarzik)
44 * Proper initialization of the card (which sometimes
45 fails to occur and leaves the card in a non-functional
46 state). (uzi)
47
48 * Some documented register settings to optimize some
49 of the 100Mbit autodetection circuitry in rev C cards. (uzi)
50
51 * Polling of the PHY intr for stuff like link state
52 change and auto- negotiation to finally work properly. (uzi)
53
54 * One-liner removal of a duplicate declaration of
55 netdev_error(). (uzi)
56
57 Version 1.0.7: (Manfred Spraul)
58 * pci dma
59 * SMP locking update
60 * full reset added into tx_timeout
61 * correct multicast hash generation (both big and little endian)
62 [copied from a natsemi driver version
63 from Myrio Corporation, Greg Smith]
64 * suspend/resume
65
66 version 1.0.8 (Tim Hockin <thockin@sun.com>)
67 * ETHTOOL_* support
68 * Wake on lan support (Erik Gilling)
69 * MXDMA fixes for serverworks
70 * EEPROM reload
71
72 version 1.0.9 (Manfred Spraul)
73 * Main change: fix lack of synchronize
74 netif_close/netif_suspend against a last interrupt
75 or packet.
76 * do not enable superflous interrupts (e.g. the
77 drivers relies on TxDone - TxIntr not needed)
78 * wait that the hardware has really stopped in close
79 and suspend.
80 * workaround for the (at least) gcc-2.95.1 compiler
81 problem. Also simplifies the code a bit.
82 * disable_irq() in tx_timeout - needed to protect
83 against rx interrupts.
84 * stop the nic before switching into silent rx mode
85 for wol (required according to docu).
86
87 version 1.0.10:
88 * use long for ee_addr (various)
89 * print pointers properly (DaveM)
90 * include asm/irq.h (?)
91
92 version 1.0.11:
93 * check and reset if PHY errors appear (Adrian Sun)
94 * WoL cleanup (Tim Hockin)
95 * Magic number cleanup (Tim Hockin)
96 * Don't reload EEPROM on every reset (Tim Hockin)
97 * Save and restore EEPROM state across reset (Tim Hockin)
98 * MDIO Cleanup (Tim Hockin)
99 * Reformat register offsets/bits (jgarzik)
100
101 version 1.0.12:
102 * ETHTOOL_* further support (Tim Hockin)
103
104 version 1.0.13:
105 * ETHTOOL_[G]EEPROM support (Tim Hockin)
106
107 version 1.0.13:
108 * crc cleanup (Matt Domsch <Matt_Domsch@dell.com>)
109
110 version 1.0.14:
111 * Cleanup some messages and autoneg in ethtool (Tim Hockin)
112
113 version 1.0.15:
114 * Get rid of cable_magic flag
115 * use new (National provided) solution for cable magic issue
116
117 version 1.0.16:
118 * call netdev_rx() for RxErrors (Manfred Spraul)
119 * formatting and cleanups
120 * change options and full_duplex arrays to be zero
121 initialized
122 * enable only the WoL and PHY interrupts in wol mode
123
124 version 1.0.17:
125 * only do cable_magic on 83815 and early 83816 (Tim Hockin)
126 * create a function for rx refill (Manfred Spraul)
127 * combine drain_ring and init_ring (Manfred Spraul)
128 * oom handling (Manfred Spraul)
129 * hands_off instead of playing with netif_device_{de,a}ttach
130 (Manfred Spraul)
131 * be sure to write the MAC back to the chip (Manfred Spraul)
132 * lengthen EEPROM timeout, and always warn about timeouts
133 (Manfred Spraul)
134 * comments update (Manfred)
135 * do the right thing on a phy-reset (Manfred and Tim)
136
137 TODO: 26 TODO:
138 * big endian support with CFG:BEM instead of cpu_to_le32 27 * big endian support with CFG:BEM instead of cpu_to_le32
