Is there any reason for not applying this patch ? Do you want a patch against the latest git tree ?
The overall consensus at this year's Linux Kernel Summit was that this driver still needs a lot of cleanup, so I'm gonna try an experiment and stick this in the staging tree (currently jgarzik/netdev-2.6.git#benet).
Greg, do I need to do anything beyond simply putting it into the directory? Do I need to add some code to taint, perhaps?
