 123           This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,
 124           with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core
 125           that supports deep queues for efficient transfers.  (This gives
 126           better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
 127
 128           The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
 129
 130           - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
 131             cables.  These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
 132             "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards.  These rely
 133             on specialized chips from many suppliers.
 134
 135           - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
 136             These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
 137             others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
 138             CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
 139
 140           - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
 141             uses this driver framework.
 142
 143           The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
 144           a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices.  Those
 145           two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
 146           (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.
