Indeed, I don't like the include/linux/stmmac.h file but it's not only,
see the dm9000.h file.

Moreover, moving this header file within drivers/net/stmmac directory,
each board setup file (arch/sh/boards/mach-<name>/setup.c should have
#include "../../../../drivers/net/stmmac/stmmac_plat.h". Is it a good
solution? So i can think the include/linux/stmmac.h remains the way
(like for  the architectures that use the Davicom DM9000 adapter).
At any rate, welcome advice as usual.

Regards,
Peppe
