What I'm going to do at this point is just merge the tg3
fix into the current 2.6.23 tree right now.

Meanwhile I'll have the HT1000 MSI quirk revert ready and,
unless we find a reason not to, I'll ask Greg KH to merge
that patch into 2.6.24

It seems the safest and most reasonable way to handle this
right now.
