[systemd-devel] [PATCH 1/2] udev: use "bit" as unit for network card speeds

[Jan Engelhardt]

Given a card that can do 100 Mbit/s, that would be about 12.5 MByte/s,
but you cannot seriously expect me to use that value. Although it is
quite compelling for 40 Gbit/s because that divides nicely to 5
GByte/sec, and we will be seeing increasing speeds :)
