OK, I have merged the monolithic patch into jgarzik/netdev-2.6.git#atl1.
Once I'm done merging patches tonight, I will merge this new 'atl1'
branch into the 'ALL' meta-branch, which will auto-propagate this driver
into Andrew Morton's -mm for testing.
For future driver updates, please send a patch rather than the full
driver diff.
If it looks good, we will push for 2.6.21 (or 2.6.22, if updates or
objections continue to come fast and furious). It's in "the system"
now, thanks for all your hard work!

Perhaps a dumb question, but when can I begin submitting differential
patches? Now? I'd like to incorporate some of Arjan's and Randy's
comments.
Thank you very much for accepting the driver.
