I left an old implementation in case adapters that need ioport resources appear, but it's true that these codes are a little redundant for igb and e1000e drivers. > So, perhaps you can remove the ioport code from those 2 drivers (e1000e/igb) > completely and resubmit to Jeff Kirsher? OK, I'll send them later.
