Hi, This depends on the preceding patch, and the usbnet patch you've already sent to Linus.
This patch makes the USB network drivers that have ethtool support expose only those stable IDs ... no more references to unstable values like dev->bus->busnum (changes depending on order of modprobe) or dev->devnum (assigned not quite randomly during enumeration :). This supports more intelligent policies for user mode tools, such as "always assign this address to the device on that port", as well as making troubleshooting more practical when there are multiple devices (of a given type) present ... you can tell which is which. Please merge into Linus' tree. - Dave
