Well, there is Documentation/s390/driver-model.txt, but that is not
really complete.
In essence, it comes down to writing the bus_id's of your ccw devices
for a network card into the driver's "group" attribute and writing "1" into
the new "online" attribute of the group device. There is an experimental
script to do this, based on a configuration file that looks like this:
group qeth 0.0.f58a 0.0.f58b 0.0.f58c
portname OSAPORT
