Hello Claudio.

6172 not so similar to 6171 as it may seem. 6172 more similar to 
6352/6240/6176 - they described in one functional specification datasheet.

For example - any record in VTU _require_ correct STU record. 6171 
driver doesn't care about stu. Without it 802.1q vlans doesn't work.

I can send my 6172/6176 driver for 3.10 kernel, but for now it require 
little work for prepare to merge it.

Best regards
Nazarenko Nikita
