Subject: 2.6.18-rc3-mm2: bad e1000 device name

With 2.6.18-rc3-mm2, I get a bogus device name for my e1000 device, 
which I would expect to be eth0:

: ezr:pts/0; ifconfig -a
�6f�      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:16:D3:20:D2:0B  
          UP BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
          Base address:0x2000 Memory:ee000000-ee020000 
[...]

(that's \xc06f\xf7).

.config, dmesg and lspci attached.

Thanks,
    J
