Subject: [RFC net-next 0/2] Create ancient subdirectories for old hardware

Maybe something like this:

Old, rare, and unsupported hardware should be exposed as ancient.

The drivers for these ancient hardwares are generally untested with
current kernels.

Joe Perches (2):
  drivers/net: Create an ANCIENT_NETDEVICES symbol
  chelsio: Move original cxgb driver into ancient subdirectory
