 July 11: Meeting with mentors. Informed that I need to make some "major progress" by monday, or be failed.

 Re-wrote probe section of skge.outline
 Moved the software reset section of skge_initialize into a new function and called it in probe instead. (skge_hardware_reset)

+I took another look at open, and I'm not happy with the structure as it was;
+It's again been redefined to this (but it's very likely to change by tomorrow).
+<code>
+skge_open
+	setup_rx_resources
+		skge_ring_alloc
+			refill_rx_ring
+			populate_rx_descriptor
+	setup_tx_resources
+		skge_ring_alloc
+	start_clocks
+		software_reset_device
+</code>
+Plan for tomorrow:
+<code>
+/Re-outline existing skge_open in much more detail
+|Compare above outline with the intended structure for skge_open
+|Separate tx and rx memory sections; perform two malloc_dma's instead of one;
+\Each tx and rx section of open should be completely separate
+Re-write skge_open (and all it's child functions)in it's new form and outline
+Specificly:
+ - Change all instances of netdev_priv (as now netdev_priv is an instance of skge_private, not skge_port)
+ - Enumerate all access to the tx and rx rings and make sure they are using separated access methods.
+</code>
