I thought for sure I would have finished what I have left by last
weekend, but I keep getting interrupted.  (Blame it on the NHL stanley
cup playoffs) :)

I have created a git tree on kernel.org with all the work that I have
completed so far (see below).  This first stage of the move is only
taking care of the drivers.  The next stage will move the networking
core drivers (bridging, bonding, vlan, etc.) into drivers/net/sw.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/next-organize

I will send out all the patches as an RFC by the end of the week (for sure).
