Oh dear - I had all but forgotten about this one. The patch announcement 
states it was tested on elgar so yes, this version works.

These patches originated in a review comment by Geert for the original 
xsurf100 driver that came after Dave had accepted the driver. Might even 
have been misrouted by me (I wasn't very clear whether net or net-next 
was appropriate). I evidently never followed up.

Which reminds me to check how far we ever got with testing the XSurf500 
driver that's still stuck in my tree.

Please do that - I haven't followed net-next for over a year and don't 
have a current enough tree to rebase this on.

Can't find it used anywhere either, so I'm confident it can be dropped. 
While you're at it, I believe it can be dropped from lib8390.c as well 
now (that's where I copied it from). Dave would know for sure.

Cheers,
