Subject: [PATCH 2.6.32 3/3] net: Make ks8851 snl work under Beagle Zippy combo board

From: Tristram Ha <Tristram.Ha@...rel.com>

The Micrel KSZ8851 SNL Ethernet chip is used in the OMAP Beagle Zippy combo board.  Requesting interrupt using level triggering flag hangs the system because the interrupt handling routine is called continually.  Using edge triggering avoids this problem.  As a result, disabling interrupt may not be necessary.
