Subject: [PATCH 0/18] spidernet driver bug fixes

Jeff, please apply for the 2.6.23 kernel tree.  The pach series
consists of two major bugfixes, and several bits of cleanup.

The major bug fixes are: 

1) a rare but fatal bug involving "RX ram full" messages, 
   which results in a driver deadlock.

2) misconfigured TX interrupts, causing a sever performance
   degardation for small packets.

Minor updates include an expanded ring dump routine, and 
documentation for some portions of the device driver.
