64ef895798 qeth: remove EDDP
Performance measurements showed EDDP does not lower CPU costs but increase
them. So we dump out EDDP code from qeth driver.

293d984f0e ctcm: infrastructure for replaced ctc driver
ctcm driver supports the channel-to-channel connections of the
old ctc driver plus an additional MPC protocol to provide SNA
connectivity.

This new ctcm driver replaces the existing ctc driver.

56347a2e72 [PATCH] s390: remove tty support from ctc network device driver [1/2]
Hi jeff,
after the first shot I sent to you did not apply I
resend  two new patches I've made today to remove tty from ctc network driver.
Please apply ....

Thank you ...

Frank

        [1/2]:
        tty support code will be removed from the ctc network device driver.
        Today we have a couple of alternatives which are performing much
        better. The second thing is that ctc should be a network
        device driver only.
        We should not mix tty and networking here.
        This first patch will remove the tty code from ctcmain.c .
        It also removes the build entry from the Makefile as well as TTY
        definitions from ctcmain.h.
        The second patch will remove two files, ctctty.c and ctctty.h.

05e08a2a29 [PATCH] s390: qeth bug fixes
[patch 10/10] s390: qeth bug fixes.

From: Frank Pavlic <pavlic@de.ibm.com>

qeth network driver related changes:
 - due to OSA hardware changes in TCP Segmentation Offload
   support we are able now to pack TSO packets too.
   This fits perfectly in design of qeth buffer handling and
   sending data respectively.
 - remove skb_realloc_headroom from the sending path since
   hard_header_len value provides enough headroom now.
 - device recovery behaviour improvement
 - bug fixed in Enhanced Device Driver Packing functionality

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
