The attached patch adds support for refcounting of modules implementing
netlink protocols. The idea is that you prevent the module from

You will need to enforce that nothing else gets the index 34 while eth7 is
removed.
How do you do that?
Thats trivial if you assume there's one management app which most of the
router vendors implementing it have. It will get tricky

Unbalanced netlink_table_ungrab() in the netlink stuff in git-net.patch.
Applied to net-2.6.14, thanks Andrew.

This moves and renames the basically generic e1000_get_perm_addr
routine to ethtool_op_get_perm_addr, and causes e1000 to make use of
the new name.
Stupid question: Can we assume ethtool will only be used for networking
devices with a 6-byte hardware address?
If not, then the driver-specific approach would give the flexibility of
copying anything up to MAX_ADDR_LEN.
Perhaps increasing the count to MAX_ADDR_LEN is the way to go??
B'ah! Nevermind. I'll learn to read #defines one of these days.
Sorry for the spam.

A set of patches will follow that adds the last remaining register
access workaround for 5703 behind certain ICH bridges.

various register access methods. Patch #4 adds the new indirect register
access method.

The register write to register 0x68 to restart interrupts is unnecessary
as the interrupt wasn't masked in that register by the irq handler. This
will save one register write in the fast path.
