Something changed between 2.6.17-rc5-mm2 and -mm3 that broke tg3

and the specific change that broke it seems to be:
gregkh-pci-pci-ignore-pre-set-64-bit-bars-on-32-bit-platforms.patch.

... this is a 64-bit BAR preset with a 16-bit mask, preset
to the valid 32-bit address 0x0000_0000_f7ef_0000.

pci_write: 0000:01:02.0 reg 0x10 len 4 val 0x0004 <=== looks questionable
pci_write: 0000:01:02.0 reg 0x14 len 4 val 0x0000

... here the algorithm thinks the addrss is above 4 GB and disables it. It should re-enable it when the device is turned back on, though; if it doesn't that's very strange.

Anyway, the error seems to be that the line:

+ } else if (l) {

... should be ...

+ } else if (lhi) {

... since l contains the lower half of the pre-set address at that point, and lhi is the upper half.
