Thanks for posting the patch in a git-am friendly format :)

I merged this into netdev-2.6.git#e1000e just now, and pulled it into 
netdev-2.6.git#ALL so that Andrew's -mm tree will automatically pick up 
this driver.

Please submit e1000e in the form of follow-up patches to #e1000e, rather 
than reposting the entire driver.

We'll leave it on this side branch for a little while, to give others a 
chance to review and test, and give you (auke) a chance to update for 
Andi's comments etc.

	Jeff
