I plan to separate the file into two files. And
I find I need an additional header file for it, so
The patch includes adding that header file.

The purpose is let me easy to maintain the driver.
The code is larger and larger. And I find that the
r8169.c has been separated into three files.
Therefore, I think maybe I could split the driver
into small parts like r8169. Then, the code wouldn't
be complex.

Should I abandon these patches?
