I wonder if this (or another known patch) fixes an SiS900 problem I've been
experiencing on 2.4.18. When you unplug and plug back in the cat 5 cable
(forcing it to redetect the link), it starts dropping packets like mad until
the next reboot. Ping shows this up nicely...
I reported this problem a week or two back...

...but haven't really followed up yet. (It's a "don't do that then" at the
moment.) I should probably go ask Donald Becker. (I should also try
compiling as a module and doing insmod/rmmod and see if that fixes it, but
that's not really a fix, it's another workaround...)
