The thing about keeping e100 in parallel with the other driver is that
some devices didn't work on the other driver and also it wasn't staging
code.

I don't have strong opinions either way, but if we decide to keep the
old driver around for another kernel release "just in case" then we
should make it print a warning on load or something to say that it's
soon going to be removed.
