Not now, they would appear in the next backport.
I'm backporting from a moving target. Two weeks ago I posted the patch
for review to linux-netdev (based on a 2.6 -mm kernel). I haven't
received any complaints, thus I'm submitting it now for merging.
During these two weeks the __iomem and netdev_priv change were added to
2.6 and that causes the difference between my patch and 2.6.10-rc1.
