We want to extract our LAN card driver from tulip core driver and
make a new file uli526x.c at tulip folder, because we have added
some ethtool interface support and non-eprom support in our driver
and may be other change in the futher.
If our controllers support are still contained in the tulip core
driver, I think it'll increase the complexity of maintenance, you
know, tulip core driver include several files and support so many
other controllers. Furthermore, I tested the newest kernel 2.6.12
and I found the tulip driver can not work on our lan controller, and
I no time to debug it, so I aspired want to make a single uli526x.c
file just for our controllers. Could you help us remove the ULi
m5261/m5263 lan controller support from tulip core driver and add
the new single uli526x.c file for us?

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!
