This was ACK'd by Greg, as you see in the sign-offs. See the commit
below for rationale.
USB is now treated like other buses, for network drivers:
* USB network driver patches should go to me and netdev
* Just like in PCI or PCMCIA land, bus-specific code may
originate from the USB side of the house (Greg's tree).
Please pull from 'usb-move' branch of
master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/netdev-2.6.git usb-move

commit 5b2fc499917e5897a13add780e181b4cef197072

Move USB network drivers to drivers/net/usb.
It is preferable to group drivers by usage (net, scsi, ATA, ...) than
by bus. When reviewing drivers, the [PCI|USB|PCMCIA|...] maintainer
is probably less qualified on networking issues than a networking
maintainer. Also, from a practical standpoint, chips often
appear on multiple buses, which is why we do not put drivers into
drivers/pci/net.
