Modified files:
sys/pci if_rl.c
Log:
Print a warning when we detect a Realtek 8139B chip
(identified by the IO map being 256 bytes long instead of 128)
This chip works very unreliably on my Lanner embedded PC with the rl driver.
Lots of watchdog timeouts or poor performance.
Forcing the media type to 10 Meg (ifconfig rl0 media 10baseT/UTP) is a good
workaround.
This looks very similar to the problem reported in PR kern/18790
It is interesting to note that the linux driver has lots of special
case code for this chip.
