Cleanup the namespace a bit by prefixing structures with mdev_ and also more concretely define the mdev interface. Structs with comments defining which fields are private vs public tempts poor behavior, especially for an interface where we expect out of tree vendor drivers.
Additionally in v2, the patch removing the next field from mdev_device is dropped, instead using it to fix a remove race, my From address is fixed, and Documentation is updated. Jike, I left your R-b on the patches that didn't change only. If I've missed any relevant doc updates, please let me know. Thanks,
Alex
