Used by systems based on certain Freescale SoCs (specifically the
Servergy CTS-1000 system).

You can resubmit this patch when you submit a driver upstream that
uses it, so we can see what the use case looks like.

That patch is getting sent soon. It's starting out in staging. Should I Cc you on that?

Why don't you wait until the driver is good enough for drivers/net proper?

It's code that I've manually stripped down as a subset of a larger code base for Freescale's DPAA driver. I've only tested it on our (Servergy's) platform, so until it gets more broad testing (and some code review), I want to at least get it into staging so our hardware is supported.
