We upgraded a crash machine from 3.1-RELEASE to 4.0-CURRENT from just
before the EGCS switch was pulled.  The machine is a Pentium 166 MMX
overdrive.  Prior to the upgrade, it correctly probed the Kensington KNE
2100  (something like that) with the lnc driver as being at 0x300 irq 5
drq 6.

The working 3.1-RELEASE GENERIC w/a change in the config editor probe went
like: 

lnc0 at 0x300-0x317 irq 5 drq 6 on isa
lnc0: PCnet-ISA address 00:c0:f0:00:81:f4

After upgrading to -current, the probe failed as follows (when config was 
used on the GENERIC quote):

lnc0 at 0x300-0x317 irq 5 drq 6 on isa
lnc0: Memory allocated above 16Mb limit

Any suggestions as to what might done to fix it?  If we switch back to the
old kernel, it boots fine, so presumably it was some change between
3.1-RELEASE and 4.0-CURRENT, either in the config file or the lnc driver?
