FYI, looks good so far, ontop of Linus' latest -git tree.
btw., one thing i always found weird about forcedeth is that it
generates an extra ~100 irqs per second even when there's no network
traffic:
11: 89752 XT-PIC-XT eth0
11: 89854 XT-PIC-XT eth0
11: 89955 XT-PIC-XT eth0
11: 90056 XT-PIC-XT eth0
11: 90157 XT-PIC-XT eth0
(irq count snapshot every second). Just in case it's easy to fix ...
