In that case, can someone back out Poul-Henning's changes to the if_xe.c in the -STABLE tree? That's (I hope) the only thing stopping it from working. At least that way only my code will be bogus :-) Believe me, I know it's ugly, but there's no getting around the fact that the driver needs to read the CIS, and right now there's no clean way to do that in -STABLE (is there?).
