Some remarks below before I have to go.

Ok, let's go for it. I'd add a TODO/FIXME though.

Excess line break in the 'if ... else' above.

If the allocation fails, the driver will have to handle a shorter
than expected ring (it is probably ok, I have not checked it). You
may consider initializing the link field for each descriptor if
possible. See epic_init_ring() for some inspiration.

The irqs will be disabled for whatever device shares them...

... and they will not be enabled again.

You should avoid disable_irq here and disable the irq with some
korina register write prior to free_irq instead.

It will work as is but you could merge both of those in a single
variable (name it 'rc' and the consequences will appear directly
in the diff between this patch and the next version).

You can remove the 'if's.

It's getting better. Don't go away :o)
