Cover letter [RFC][PATCH 0/3] net: generic netdev_ioaddr

Hi,

This patch introduces a generic netdev_ioaddr and converts natsemi and 8139too drivers to use it.

With the recent __iomem annotations, the network drivers need to either invent this wrapper (like natsemi has done) or duplicate the IO base address in their private data (similar to 8139too). Therefore, lets make netdev_ioaddr generic before it is all over the place.

Pekka
