After a recent reboot (new kernel) on a 2.2.6-STABLE box, my de1 card
started reporting "no carrier":

de0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
	inet 10.0.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.1.255
	ether 00:c0:6d:15:00:71
	media: 100baseTX status: active
de1: flags=c943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,LINK2,MULTICAST>
mtu 1500
	inet 207.109.3.210 netmask -0xffffff00 broadcast 207.109.3.255
	ether 00:c0:6d:13:d0:44
	media: 100baseTX status: no carrier
lp0: flags=8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ep0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
	inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
	ether 00:20:af:37:98:ac

de0 is connected to a 100baseTX hub, ep0 is connected to a 10baseT hub,
and de1 is connected via a crossover cable to a Netspeed ADSL "modem".

The strange part is de1 seems to be working properly, it passes packets
just fine.

The link light on both the de1 card and Netspeed is on.

I've tried taking the card out of promisc mode, removing "LINK2", and
bringing the interface down and back up, but it's had no effect.

Is this a bug in the de driver, a misbehaving card, or just operator
headspace?
