I plan on submitting a series to Paul tomorrow-ish for 2.6.24.  Too
late for 2.6.23.

Someone brought up the fact that the EMAC rewrite is mostly just
changing probing code and the guts are still similar to the current
EMAC driver.  I haven't really looked into it yet, but if that's true,
I'd be curious as to why it was done that way.

Either way, I'm hoping we can get something into 2.6.24.
