e1000e will from now on support the PCI-Express adapters that
previously were supported by e1000. This support means better
performance and easier debugging from now on for both the old
PCI-X/PCI hardware and PCI-Express adapters.
This patch also moves 3 recently merged device IDs over to e1000e
that are identical to quad-port versions of already existing
dual port versions. With this last bit every former e1000 pci-e
device should work now with e1000e.
Here is a brief list of which gigabit driver to use with which
adapter:
e1000:
82540 -> 82547
e1000e:
82571 -> 82573
ich8, ich9 (82562 or 82566)
es2lan (80003eslan)
igb: (not yet merged, only available from e1000.sf.net)
82575

A small bug crawled in the -DDEBUG enabled code. Fix this to
properly call the backreference device name.

This driver implements support for the ICH9 on-board LAN ethernet
device. The device is similar to ICH8.
The driver encompasses code to support 82571/2/3, es2lan and ICH8
devices as well, but those device IDs are disabled and will be
"lifted" from the e1000 driver over one at a time once this driver
receives some more live time.
Changes to the last snapshot posted are exclusively in the internal
hardware API organization. Many thanks to Jeff Garzik for jumping in
and getting this organized with a keen eye on the future layout.
