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