Changes in this release:

[FIX] Lots of VLAN layer fixes from Chris Leech.
[FIX] Fix a bug in Tigon3 fibre negotiation state machine
      where it could run forever. Reported by Erik Habbinga.
[FIX] Do not lose network statistics around down/up of interface
      for Tigon3. Broadcom's driver has this bug too.
[FIX] Small bug fix for PHY setup on 5703 A1 revisions.
[FEATURE] Add many new tunables, via ethtool, to Tigon3
          for controlling:
          1) Coelaescing, interrupt mitigation
          2) RX/TX ring sizes
          3) Pause flow control settings
          4) RX/TX checksumming and scatter-gather
          Please note that these new bits have not been
          added to Jeff's ethtool userland tool but they
          will be added soon.

I'm probably going to bump the version to 1.0 and push this to Marcelo
for 2.4.x in the next couple of days. Jeff has already included this
driver (and I the VLAN layer stuff) into 2.5.x

Enjoy.
