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