Comments:

* please use standard indentation (one tab)

* please use constants per the include/linux/pci_ids.h standard, rather 
than defining your own.

* please use standard include/linux/pci.h constants, rather than 
defining your own (PCIILR, etc.)

* further, obtain interrupt from struct pci_dev::irq after calling 
pci_enable_device(); do not obtain directly via pci_read_config_xxx()

* fst_process_rx_status() could result in flooding the log

* use pci_set_master() to enable bus-mastering

* bottom halves are deprecated.  do not add new code using mark_bh() and 
friends.  Use tasklets or schedule_task().

* use pci_set_dma_mask() rather than pci_dma_supported()

* use pci_request_regions() rather than request_region()
