SubjectRe: Softnet/eepro100 driver conversion bug in 2.3.43pre8?

Hello!

Could you try to answer another, simpler, question?
Namely, why is the question raised now?

Softnet did not introduce _anything_ new to this area.
Even 2.3.15 did not this. If eepro100 fails now,
it always (including 2.2) failed _exactly_ with the same frequency.
