So much unused crap left in these header files, get rid of this stuff.

+#define ALX_HW_WARN(_fmt, _args...) \
+		ALX_HW_PRINTA(WARNING, _fmt, ## _args)
+
+#define ALX_HW_INFO(_fmt, _args...) \
+		ALX_HW_PRINTA(INFO, _fmt, ## _args)
+
+#define ALX_HW_DBG(_fmt, _args...) \
+		ALX_HW_PRINTA(DEBUG, _fmt, ## _args)
+

We told you to get rid of your customized debug logging interfaces,
yet all of this stuff is still there.

+/* delay function */
+#define US_DELAY(_hw, _n)	__US_DELAY(_n)
+#define MS_DELAY(_hw, _n)	__MS_DELAY(_n)
+#define __US_DELAY(_n)		udelay(_n)
+#define __MS_DELAY(_n)		mdelay(_n)

Useless wrappers for standard kernel interfaces, kill this.

+#define DEBUG_INFO(_a, _b)
+#define DEBUG_INFOS(_a, _b)

Again we told you to get rid of this stuff.

I suspect it's going to take may rounds of feedback before this driver
is anywhere near ready for inclusion.

Please just submit it to staging and let it cook there for a couple
weeks in the interests of our sanity.
