- Old driver.

I have been running the system for 4 days now with this driver. My
application has not stopped accepting connections, irq rate is low, and
there are no rx/tx errors reported. Everything looks good.

- Patched driver.

Your initial import plus the IRQ fix still shows rx errors, and my
application had stopped accepting connections. I have not tried the patch
in your last email, and im not sure when i will be able to to as these
systems are in production. Perhaps someone else could test it? As soon as
i get a chance i will let you know how it goes.

Thanks for the work on this.
