stmmac may not be a good name.  Maybe stmicro.
Hello and sorry for the delay of this reply.

concerning the stmmac, in the past, I had thought to rename it as
synmac
because the driver, although was initially designed to work on ST
platforms, today it runs on other platforms.
The driver indeed is generic enough and is for MAC 10/100/1000 core by
Synopsys.
This is just an idea.

Moreover, sorry if I'm missing some details of this thread, I can do
rework if you agree, so let me know how proceed.
IIUC new patches should be built against:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/next-organize

Regards
Peppe 
I can make that change, I am almost finished re-working the patches with
the suggested changes so far, so I will try to get it into the next
update I post in the next couple of days.
