An initial, quick FYI. I'll be taking input for net drivers that can be
removed in 2.7. Even some of the ancient ISA net drivers still have users,
Other stuff:
* Would like to get rid of de4x5.c, but EISA support still has users
that appear to care :)
* pondering importing Donald's myson driver, replacing unmaintained
fealnx.c. We have the new module_alias() stuff, which makes the
transition a bit easier.

And I have an old pmac laptop for which tulip dies while de4x5 works, I
didn't figure out what's up yet.
