Subject: [2.6 patch] eepro100 resume patch

When I did a software suspend to disk then resumed the Intel network
card using eepro100 driver would be unable to transmit packets.  I
tracked this down and found a register write after the print message
"DP83840 specific setup" which wasn't being executed when the system
was restored.  This fix moves that write and another write which
forces the link speed and duplex.

After doing this work and preparing the patch I checked out the
mailing list only to find a patch that removes the eepro100.  I then
updated Kconfig, though I wonder why it didn't have a similar message
in it long time ago.

I too had tried the e100 driver some time ago and it didn't work,
eepro100 did and I've been using it so long that I've almost forgotten
about that.  I just gave the e100 driver a try and I've been running
for about an hour now without any problems and it does resume after a
suspend to disk operation.
