Subject: [PATCH] DRIVERS: NET: USB: DM9601 driver can drive a device not supported yet, add support for it

Hi,

I found that the current version of drivers/net/usb/dm9601.c can be used to
successfully drive a low-power, low-cost network adapter with USB ID
0a46:9000, based on a DM9000E chipset. As no device with this ID is yet
present in the kernel, I have created a patch that adds support for the device
to the dm9601 driver.

Created and tested against linux-2.6.32-rc5.

There seems to be plenty of those devices available on ebay recently, for example:
