Subject: [PATCH 0/2] myri10ge updates for 2.6.23

Hi Jeff,

Now that Greg pushed my fix to expose pcie_get_readrq() prototype in
linux/pci.h, I am resending my rework of Peter Oruba's patch to use
pcie_get/set_readrq() in myri10ge. Please apply for 2.6.23.

1. use pcie_get/set_readrq
2. update driver version to 1.3.2-1.269

Also, we noticed that packet forwarding is faster on our hardware when
receiving in linear skb instead of pages (about 10Gb/s vs. 7), so we are
thinking of submitting a Kconfig option to switch to the old linear skb
RX code. Would this be acceptable?

Thanks,
Brice
