EV-64260-BP & GT64260 bi_recs

[Mark A. Greer]

Ben, et. al.,

Sorry for dropping out the last few days, I've been very busy with other things.

I've skimmed the email but I'll admit I didn't read them all in depth.  I've made
an example of actual bi_rec's using the ev64260 to see if my skimming worked :)
In the example, I used a BI_STRUCT to pass in  the mac addr for the 3 embedded
enet ctlrs on the gt64260.  I used the DEV_TYPE + DEV_CLASS concept but made an
"EMBEDDED" DEV_TYPE to go along with DEV_PCI so we don't have to add a new one
for each embedded ctlr.  The square brackets are only there to make it easier to
follow.  I'm assuming that every bi_rec is responsible for padding out to a
4-byte boundary.  Is that what I'm supposed to do?

Please let me know if I'm on the right track.  If so, we--the ev64260 people--can
flesh out some more bi_rec's and implement them.

Mark
