ATA over Ethernet driver

Release Notes: Premature timeout of a command reassigned to a new local network interface was avoided. Support for 2.6.30 Linux kernels was added, and compatibility with kernels older than 2.6.11 was repaired.

Release Notes: The robustness of the driver's retransmission algorithm in the face of lossy networks was improved. Runtime SKB_BUG warnings about skb truesize were eliminated. Compatibility was extended to later kernels and improved. Remote addresses that are not handling I/O requests are avoided more consistently. A race between discovery and device flushing was eliminated. The build system was improved to do only necessary work.

Release Notes: The compatibility system was generalized. Support for the 2.6.26 Linux kernel was added.

Release Notes: The driver now uses regular congestion control and avoidance, allowing the use of a wider range of network topologies and a greater number of AoE initiators per target.

Release Notes: The ATA device identify response information is now exported via ioctl, so that udev's ata_id can fetch the model and serial number information of an AoE device. Compatibility with RHEL new kernels in 5.2 was added.
