7e99eeddb3 rndis_host: support WM6 devices as modems
This patch allows Windows Mobile 6 devices to be used for
tethering -- that is, used as modems.  It was requested by
AdamW in kernel bugzilla:

  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11119

and Mandriva kernel-discuss list.  It is tested and confirmed
to work by Peterl:

  http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?pid=323543#p323543

This patch is based on the patch in the above kernel bugzilla,
which is from the usb-rndis-lite tree.

3692e94f15 Move usbnet.h and rndis_host.h to include/linux/usb
Move headers usbnet.h and rndis_host.h to include/linux/usb and fix includes
for drivers/net/usb modules. Headers are moved because rndis_wlan will be
outside drivers/net/usb in drivers/net/wireless and yet need these headers.

786e3dfbae cdc_ether: Hardwire CDC descriptors when missing
Just as ActiveSync devices, some regular RNDIS devices also lack
the CDC descriptors (e.g. devices based on BCM4320 WLAN chip).
This patch hardwires the CDC descriptors for all RNDIS style devices
when they are missing.

4149b72eaa USB: handle more rndis_host oddities
Workaround another device firmware bug, wherein CDC descriptors get
placed in a wrong place never previously observed in the wild.

Fix a bug where a seeming RNDIS device returns a bogus response during
device initialization.

5b2fc49991 Move USB network drivers to drivers/net/usb.
It is preferable to group drivers by usage (net, scsi, ATA, ...) than
by bus.  When reviewing drivers, the [PCI|USB|PCMCIA|...] maintainer
is probably less qualified on networking issues than a networking
maintainer.  Also, from a practical standpoint, chips often
appear on multiple buses, which is why we do not put drivers into
drivers/pci/net.
