    [PKT_SCHED]: Rework QoS and/or fair queueing configuration
    
    Make "QoS and/or fair queueing" have its own menu, it's too big to be
    inlined into "Network options". Remove the obsolete NET_QOS option.
    Automatically select NET_CLS if needed. Do the same for NET_ESTIMATOR
    but allow it to be selected manually for statistical purposes. Add
    comments to separate queueing from classification. Fix dependencies
    and ordering of classifiers. Improve descriptions/help texts and
    remove outdated pieces.

    [NET]: Fix zero-size datagram reception
    
    The recent rewrite of skb_copy_datagram_iovec broke the reception of
    zero-size datagrams.  This patch fixes it.

    [ETHERNET]: Add ether stuff to docbook
    
    Fix up etherdevice docbook comments and make them (and other networking stuff)
    get dragged into the kernel-api. Delete the old 8390 stuff, it really isn't
    interesting anymore.

    [ETHERNET]: Optimize is_broadcast_ether_addr
    
    Optimize the match for broadcast address by using bit operations instead
    of comparison. This saves a number of conditional branches, and generates
    smaller code.

    [TCP]: BIC max increment too large
    
    The max growth of BIC TCP is too large. Original code was based on
    BIC 1.0 and the default there was 32. Later code (2.6.13) included
    compensation for delayed acks, and should have reduced the default
    value to 16; since normally TCP gets one ack for every two packets sent.
    
    The current value of 32 makes BIC too aggressive and unfair to other
    flows.

    [MCAST]: ip[6]_mc_add_src should be called when number of sources is zero
    
    And filter mode is exclude.
    
    Further explanation by David Stevens:
    
    Multicast source filters aren't widely used yet, and that's really the only
    feature that's affected if an application actually exercises this bug, as far
    as I can tell. An ordinary filter-less multicast join should still work, and
    only forwarded multicast traffic making use of filters and doing empty-source
    filters with the MSFILTER ioctl would be at risk of not getting multicast
    traffic forwarded to them because the reports generated would not be based on
    the correct counts.
