 101           This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,
 102           with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core
 103           that supports deep queues for efficient transfers.  (This gives
 104           better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
 105
 106           The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
 107
 108           - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
 109             cables.  These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
 110             "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards.  These rely
 111             on specialized chips from many suppliers.
 112
 113           - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
 114             These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
 115             others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
 116             CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
 117
 118           - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
 119             uses this driver framework.
 120
 121           The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
 122           a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices.  Those
 123           two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
 124           (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.
