 109           This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,
 110           with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core
 111           that supports deep queues for efficient transfers.  (This gives
 112           better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
 113
 114           The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
 115
 116           - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
 117             cables.  These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
 118             "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards.  These rely
 119             on specialized chips from many suppliers.
 120
 121           - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
 122             These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
 123             others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
 124             CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
 125
 126           - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
 127             uses this driver framework.
 128
 129           The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
 130           a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices.  Those
 131           two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
 132           (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.

 372           as encouraged by Microsoft (instead of CDC Ethernet!) for use in
 373           various devices that may only support this protocol.  A variant
 374           of this protocol (with even less public documentation) seems to
 375           be at the root of Microsoft's "ActiveSync" too.

 377           Avoid using this protocol unless you have no better options.
 378           The protocol specification is incomplete, and is controlled by
 379           (and for) Microsoft; it isn't an "Open" ecosystem or market.
