2.6.4-rc1 - problem with e100?

[Robert Gadsdon]

With 2.6.4-rc1 the e100 driver appears not to work (network is 
'unreachable' although #route shows correct info).

Extract from dmesg:

e100: Intel(R) PRO/100 Network Driver, 3.0.15
e100: Copyright(c) 1999-2004 Intel Corporation
e100: eth0: e100_probe: addr 0xdf123000, irq 10, MAC addr 00:60:B0:57:C9:53
e100: eth0: e100_watchdog: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex

e100: eth0: e100_watchdog: link down
e100: eth0: e100_watchdog: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex
- repeated......

Workaround is to use the eepro100 driver instead...

Problem also occurred with 2.6.3-bk8 and bk9..

2.6.3 worked OK.
