 It's one of my test machines for the defxx driver, specifically the EISA 
binding.  The Ethernet link served by the 3c509 driver is for Internet 
access, FDDI is intranet.

 I believe the defxx driver does, yes; unsure about the EISA binding.

 I don't mind updating for our coding standards, though such a change 
might be considered just irritating noise that interferes with `git blame' 
(though with the removal of the code upstream, this got broken already 
anyway).  NB it's the reason why I have hesitated to reformat the defxx 
driver for decades now, which obviously has much more serious issues here 
such as the assumption of 4-character tabs.

 I think the re-addition needs to be done in two stages, first being a 
plain revert so that no code change comes unrecorded in git, followed by 
the actual formatting cleanup.  Sadly this won't fix `git blame', but at 
least the diff will be empty between the repo states as at respectively 
the removal and the re-addition.

 Does it answer your questions and seem like a reasonable course of 
action?
