I've been telling SysKonnect for _years_ that they need to split up
their patches, but they still keep sending ever-larger jumbo driver
update patches.
Stephen Hemminger split up their patch into a bunch of patches, and I
applied several of those.
Apparently, Stephen also got sick of trying to patch and clean sk98lin,
so he went and wrote his own "skge" driver. It's available in my
netdev-2.6 queue, and should be in the latest -mm.
