The driver is now called firewire-net. It might implement the transport
of other networking protocols in the future, notably IPv6 per RFC 3146.

Implement IPv4 over IEEE 1394 as per RFC 2734 for the newer firewire
stack. This feature has only been present in the older ieee1394 stack
via the eth1394 driver.
Still to do:
- fix ipv4_priv and ipv4_node lifetime logic
- fix determination of speeds and max payloads
- fix bus reset handling
- fix unaligned memory accesses
- fix coding style
- further testing/ improvement of fragment reassembly
- perhaps multicast support

The source files of firewire-core, firewire-ohci, firewire-sbp2, i.e.
"drivers/firewire/fw-*.c"
are renamed to
"drivers/firewire/core-*.c",
"drivers/firewire/ohci.c",
"drivers/firewire/sbp2.c".
The old fw- prefix was redundant to the directory name. The new core-
prefix distinguishes the files according to which driver they belong to.
This change comes a little late, but still before further firewire
drivers are added as anticipated RSN.

Of course everybody immediately associates "fw-" with FireWire, not
firmware or firewall or whatever. But "firewire-" has a nice ring to
it too.
