This patch introduces new feature in qeth:
qeth enhancement provides the device driver support for
the Communication Controller for Linux on System z9 and zSeries
(CCL), which is software that enables running the Network Control
Program (NCP) on a zSeries machine. The OSA CDLC support is based
on a new IBM mainframe CHPID type called Open Systems Adaper for
NCP (OSN). In case of OSN qeth communicates with the type-OSN
OSA-card on one hand, and with the CCL-kernel-component Network
Device Handler (NDH) on the other.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
