Rename r8152.c with r8152_main.c. Move some basic definitions from

with "USB_EFUSE".
That is a lot of different things all happening in one commit, why?

Please break this up into "one patch per change" and submit it that way.

But the real question is why break this file up in the first place?
What is wrong with the way it is today?  What future changes require
this file to be in smaller pieces?  If none, why make this?  If there
are future changes, then please submit this change when you submit
those, as that would show a real need.

thanks,
