Subject: [PATCH] wrong mac address with netgear FA311 ethernet card]

Hi all !
This patch, against 2.6.0, corrects a problem with Netgear FA311
ethernet card (a cheap one). Without it, the MAC address is byte swapped
ie :
HWaddr 02:00:07:E3:E9:F5
instead of :
HWaddr 00:02:E3:07:F5:E9
(the correct MAC address vendor code for Netgear/LiteOn is 00:02:E3)
Thanks a lot,
Mathieu LESNIAK
