The patch works. The link state does not go away any more when the kernel
finds the card during boot. I applied it to a 2.2.1-RELEASE system. It even
works when I take out the -link2 option to ifconfig.

I will not be able to conduct any further tests with this specific card,
because it is now integrated into a production system :-)

Thanks,

Michael
