Cover letter [PATCH 0/3] Add driver for OCTEON MGMT ethernet device.

Queued for inclusion in 2.6.29 is support for the Cavium OCTEON processor. See:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-mips&m=122903840412896&w=2
http://marc.info/?l=linux-mips&m=122972878908450&w=2

This patch set adds support for the OCTEON SOC's on-board mgmt ethernet devices.

The first patch is not too interesting, it adds a missing function to the boot monitor memory allocator. This is needed by the third patch.

Second I add register definitions for the hardware blocks used by the driver. This is just a lot of boiler plate.

Third is the main driver patch.

I anticipate that some changes may have to be made to the driver, but I wanted to get some feedback before proceeding. So please let me know what you think should change with an eye to getting the driver merged.

I will reply with the three patches.

David Daney (3):
MIPS: Add named alloc functions to OCTEON boot monitor memory
allocator.
MIPS: Add some register definitions to OCTEON for MGMT ethernet
driver.
netdev: New driver for OCTEON's MGMT ethernet devices.
