10d024c1b2 [NET]: Nuke SET_MODULE_OWNER macro.
It's been a useless no-op for long enough in 2.6 so I figured it's time to
remove it.  The number of people that could object because they're
maintaining unified 2.4 and 2.6 drivers is probably rather small.

[ Handled drivers added by netdev tree and some missed IRDA cases... -DaveM ]

acb2cc8b20 [PATCH] drivers/net: remove superfluous memset
This patch covers something like this:

dev = alloc_*dev(...
...
priv = netdev_priv(dev);
memset(priv, 0, sizeof(*priv));

The memset() here is superfluous. alloc_netdev() uses kzalloc()
to allocate needed memory so there is no need to zero the priv region
twice.

9351982b25 Fix a potential NULL pointer dereference in write_bulk_callback() in drivers/net/usb/pegasus.c
This patch fixes a potential null dereference bug where we dereference
pegasus before a null check. This patch simply moves the dereferencing
after the null check.

5b2fc49991 Move USB network drivers to drivers/net/usb.
It is preferable to group drivers by usage (net, scsi, ATA, ...) than
by bus.  When reviewing drivers, the [PCI|USB|PCMCIA|...] maintainer
is probably less qualified on networking issues than a networking
maintainer.  Also, from a practical standpoint, chips often
appear on multiple buses, which is why we do not put drivers into
drivers/pci/net.
