The syncppp layer wants a mid-level netdev private pointer.
It was using netdev->priv but that only worked by accident,
and thus this scheme was broken when the device private
allocation strategy changed.
Add a proper mid-layer private pointer for uses like this,
update syncppp and all users, and remove the HDLC_PPP broken
tag from drivers/net/wan/Kconfig

PPP support in generic HDLC in Linux 2.6.25 is broken and will cause
a kernel panic when a device configured in PPP mode is activated.
It will be replaced by new PPP implementation after Linux 2.6.25 is
released.
This affects only PPP support in generic HDLC (mostly Hitachi SCA
and SCA-II based drivers, wanxl, and few others). Standalone syncppp
and async PPP support are not affected.

Make some offending drivers depend on it and set CONFIG_ARCH_NO_VIRT_TO_BUS
for ppc64 so that we don't build those drivers.
This gets PowerPC allmodconfig and allyesconfig much closer to building.

Comtrol Hostess SV-11 driver uses features from INET but doesn't depend on it.
The simple solution is to make it depend on INET as happens for the sealevel
driver.
Fixes bug #7930.

Currently WAN router drivers can be built in-kernel while the
register/unregister_wan_device interfaces are built as modules.
This causes:
drivers/built-in.o: In function `cycx_init':
cycx_main.c:(.init.text+0x5c4b): undefined reference to `register_wan_device'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `cycx_exit':
cycx_main.c:(.exit.text+0x560): undefined reference to `unregister_wan_device'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1
The problem is caused by tristate -> bool conversion (y or m => y),
so convert WAN_ROUTER_DRIVERS to a tristate so that the correct
dependency is preserved.

Another thing, reported recently to me by several people - DSCC4 WAN
driver now (and perhaps for the last couple of years+) requires the
generic HDLC. I've fixed the Kconfig and moved the DSCC4 option
under CONFIG_HDLC so it's consistent visually.

Sealevel uses arp_broken_ops so it needs to depend on INET.

This patch enables building of individual WAN protocol support
routines (parts of generic HDLC) as separate modules.
All protocol-private definitions are moved from hdlc.h file
to protocol drivers. User-space interface and interface
between generic HDLC and underlying low-level HDLC drivers
are unchanged.

The in-kernel Sangoma drivers are both not compiling and marked as BROKEN
since at least kernel 2.6.0.
Sangoma offers out-of-tree drivers, and David Mandelstam told me Sangoma
does no longer maintain the in-kernel drivers and prefers to provide them
as a separate installation package.
This patch therefore removes these drivers.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
