Richard-

I had this patch in my queue, but during testing we found some serious
issues with some adapters.  With every 82559 based adapter Aaron tried
the system would panic on driver load.  This included at least one
sampling of D101S and D101M.  Every other e100 chipset Aaron tried
(82557, 82558, 82550) appeared to work fine.

So I am dropping this patch as is due to the kernel panics.

Cheers,
Jeff
