I was trying to keep the drivers that use the 8390 common files grouped
together.

I know that there are other instances like this (for instance drivers
derived from the lance.c driver) yet these derived drivers do not use
the common files that other lance drivers use.  Because they are
derived, yet do not use the common code, should they still be grouped
together?  Just a question, I am fine with the idea.
