2.6.4-mm1 has turned to be a tricky kernel...: it breaks the 3c9x
transceiver making my 3CCFE575CT CardBus NIC unable to process any
incoming network frames, that is, no network communication takes place.
Reverting 3c59x-xcvr-fix.patch fixes the problem for me.

Sorry, I meant to check that one against the docs.
The patch is wrong. For 3c905B, the transceiver select bits are
InternalConfig:20-23 and for 3c590 the transceiver select bit are
InternalConfig:20-22.
That patch thinks the transceiver select bits are bits 21 to 36 of a 32-bit
register so no, it won't work very well.
