This patch covers something like this:
dev = alloc_*dev(...
...
priv = netdev_priv(dev);
memset(priv, 0, sizeof(*priv));
The memset() here is superfluous. alloc_netdev() uses kzalloc()
to allocate needed memory so there is no need to zero the priv region
twice.

It is preferable to group drivers by usage (net, scsi, ATA, ...) than
by bus. When reviewing drivers, the [PCI|USB|PCMCIA|...] maintainer
is probably less qualified on networking issues than a networking
maintainer. Also, from a practical standpoint, chips often
appear on multiple buses, which is why we do not put drivers into
drivers/pci/net.
