Added 8 new NICs.
$TOPDIR/Makefile
Changed the modules_install target to create the 3c575_cb.o
back-compatibility symlink.
Not very pretty, but Keith Owens is restructuring the modules
installation infrastructure - suggest we wait and see what
he comes up with.
** CONFIG_PCMCIA_3C575 should be removed from arch/i38c/defconfig,
but I don't think that's patchable?
There are still a few niggling issues:
- 575 Cardbus cards not coming online 100% of the time. Vastly
improved, but still occasionally fails when the driver is statically
linked.
- Hard-to-reproduce reports of NICs going to sleep after 30 minutes
of inactivity.
- One user's 905B going off the air under simultaneous heavy n/w
and video usage (surely related to the console code's extended
interrupt blockage, but I can't reproduce).
