This is version 6 of Thunderbolt(TM) driver for non-Apple hardware.

Changes since v5:
 - Removed the padding of short packets in receive
 - Replaced RW semaphore with mutex
 - Cleanup

These patches were pushed to GitHub where they can be reviewed more
comfortably with green/red highlighting:

Daemon code:

For reference, here's a link to version 5:

Without acks from the thunderbolt maintainer, or any network driver
developers, I'm not going to take this series.  Please work to get that
review.

Sorry for the late response. I was away for the last two weeks and
will be away again for the next week.

This driver is independent from mine. It uses an interface provided by
the firmware which is not present on Apple hardware and with which I
am not familiar (also it does networking, not pci with which I am also
not familiar). So I cannot comment on the driver itself. I don't mind
a second driver, if that is what you are asking.
