Subject: [PATCH 1/8] staging: et131x: Remove TODO entry 'alloc_etherdev initilising memory with zero'

Removing this as I'm pretty sure its not true, and alloc_etherdev isn't provided by this driver anyway. Alternatively, its a badly written comment and I don't understand it.

This drivers use of alloc_etherdev() is within keeping with other net devices, so I'm happy.

 TODO:
-	- alloc_etherdev is initializing memory with zero?!?
 	- add_timer call in et131x_netdev.c is correct?
 	- Add power saving functionality (suspend, sleep, resume)
 	- Implement a few more kernel Parameter (set mac )
