This patch seems to fix both of the issues, or at least this is what I 
see now:
- the card no longer gets reset when adding an alias;
- the arp packet gets delivered;
- adding 250 aliases takes less than a second;

I haven't fully tested whether all 250 IP aliases were accessible (I 
used non-routable IP addresses), but I suppose so. Also I couldn't 
stress the patched driver enough to see whether it performs as expected.

But in overall it looks good. I guess some more testing might be needed 
in order to merge the patch into the source tree.
