Hmmm, some build problems:

drivers/net/atl1e/atl1e_main.c: In function 'atl1e_vlan_rx_register':
drivers/net/atl1e/atl1e_main.c:322: error: 'struct net_device' has no member named 'adapter'
drivers/net/atl1e/atl1e_main.c:322: error: 'struct net_device' has no member named 'adapter'
drivers/net/atl1e/atl1e_main.c: In function 'atl1e_restore_vlan':
drivers/net/atl1e/atl1e_main.c:343: error: 'struct net_device' has no member named 'adapter'
drivers/net/atl1e/atl1e_main.c:343: error: 'struct net_device' has no member named 'adapter'
...

Passing in a derference like "adapter->netdev" as an argument doesn't work with these macros
end up giving us things like:

	dev_driver_string((adapter->netdev)->adapter->netdev.parent)

and

	dev_name((adapter->netdev)->adapter->netdev.parent)

The issue seems to be the netdev_dbg() define when DEBUG is not set and
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is set.

It goes "(dev)->dev.parent" and CPP has fun with that.

I'll use a different name for the first macro argument to netdev_dbg() and see
if that's enough to fix this.
