Comment (by mshlyn):

 Usage:
 1, merge the patch and compile
 2, put ppp1 template configuration file to
 /boot/home/config/settings/kernel/drivers/ptpnet/ppp1 and change the
 settings.
 3, In terminal type: ''ifconfig ppp1 up''

 What is done:
 1, port mbuf to net_buffer
 2, basic pppoe support

 Todo:
 1, KPPPManager optimization, now only support basic function
 2, autoconnect
 3, DNS server update to resolv.conf
 4, spelling, code style, debug information cleanup.

 Problem:
 1, All lock should be recheckd!
 2, Files 'haiku/src/add-ons/kernel/network/ppp/ipcp/{port_before.h,
 port_after.h, bittypes.h, config.h} are copied from
 haiku/src/kits/network/libbind/ dir. There should be better solution.
