the pcnet32 driver first resets the chip and then checks CSR0 to see that
the chip is really reset. It also checks, if writing the register index
register works. It looks like something is wrong here with accessing the chip
for what ever reason. This probing part of the driver hasn't changed for a long
time, at least it fairly looks like it was, when I still was the maintainer
of the driver.
