This is a resubmission of a new driver for Solarflare network controllers.
The driver supports many types of PHY (10Gbase-T, XFP, CX4) on five
different 10G reference designs and one 1G NIC ref design.

This is a net driver (and MTD driver, sfc_mtd) for our SFC4000 10G
Ethernet controller, branded "Solarstorm", with various PHYs. It is
intended to support our NIC reference designs SFE4001 (10GBASE-T),
SFE4002 (XFP), SFE4003 (10GBASE-CX4), OEM designs based on them, and
some development boards. W
