 125           This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,
 126           with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core
 127           that supports deep queues for efficient transfers.  (This gives
 128           better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
 129
 130           The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
 131
 132           - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
 133             cables.  These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
 134             "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards.  These rely
 135             on specialized chips from many suppliers.
 136
 137           - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
 138             These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
 139             others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
 140             CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
 141
 142           - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
 143             uses this driver framework.
 144
 145           The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
 146           a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices.  Those
 147           two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
 148           (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.
