That depends who is going to do that work. If it's individual driver
maintainers, then I think we want this to go in along with this series
so that we don't end up with individual driver maintainers having to
carry this patch, and submissions ending up with multiple copies of
this patch or depending on other maintainers submissions.

On the other hand, if someone is going to go through all the network
drivers and update them as one series, then it probably makes more
sense to move this to that series.

When i did this work, i did convert all drivers to the new API, and
then dropped the old API. There are too many patches for a single
series, so it makes sense to put the API in place along with one
driver conversion to show how it works, then a second series
converting all the remaining drivers, and then a cleanup series.

In this series we have no driver converted to the new API. I'll move it
to separate patch series.
