Subject: [net-2.6 PATCH 1/8] qlge: Expand coverage of hw lock for config register.

The hardware semaphore covers the configuration register as well as the
ICB registers.  The ICB high and low regs contain the address of the
initialization control block and the config register is used to signal
the hardware that a block is ready to be downloaded.  Currently we were
only protecting the ICB regs.  This changes expands to cover the config
register as well.
