Ralf Baechle	10d024c1b2	[NET]: Nuke SET_MODULE_OWNER macro. ... It's been a useless no-op for long enough in 2.6 so I figured it's time to remove it. The number of people that could object because they're maintaining unified 2.4 and 2.6 drivers is probably rather small.

Mariusz Kozlowski	acb2cc8b20	[PATCH] drivers/net: remove superfluous memset ... This patch covers something like this: dev = alloc_*dev(... ... priv = netdev_priv(dev); memset(priv, 0, sizeof(*priv)); The memset() here is superfluous. alloc_netdev() uses kzalloc() to allocate needed memory so there is no need to zero the priv region twice.

Micah Gruber	9351982b25	Fix a potential NULL pointer dereference in write_bulk_callback() in drivers/net/usb/pegasus.c ... This patch fixes a potential null dereference bug where we dereference pegasus before a null check. This patch simply moves the dereferencing after the null check.

Jeff Garzik	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.
