Staging: add Alacritech slicoss network driver
This adds the Alacritech slicoss driver to the tree. This driver is supposed to support: Mojave cards (single port PCI Gigabit) both copper and fiber Oasis cards (single and dual port PCI-x Gigabit) copper and fiber Kalahari cards (dual and quad port PCI-e Gigabit) copper and fiber The driver was acutally tested on Oasis and Kalahari cards. TODO: - move firmware loading to request_firmware() - remove direct memory access of structures - any remaining sparse and checkpatch.pl warnings - any netdev recommended changes Many thanks to Lior Dotan <liodot@gmail.com> for help with the cleanup of this driver.
