103	  This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,

105	  that supports deep queues for efficient transfers.  (This gives
106	  better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
107
108	  The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
109
110	  - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
111	    cables.  These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
112	    "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards.  These rely
113	    on specialized chips from many suppliers.
114
115	  - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
116	    These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
117	    others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
118	    CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
119
120	  - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
121	    uses this driver framework.
122
123	  The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
124	  a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices.  Those
125	  two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
126	  (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.
