I can see Andrew has done some changes to the patch and applied it anyway, but here's a version I generated against your tree. Please feel free to choose either.

You may be pleased (or less so) to hear that the version of sb1250-mac.c in your tree does not even build (because of 42d53d6be113f974d8152979c88e1061b953bd12) and the patch below does not address it. I ran out of time in the evening, but I will send you a fix shortly. To be honest I think even with bulk changes it may be worth checking whether they do not break stuff. ;-)

hrm. I cannot get this to apply on top of linux-2.6.git, netdev-2.6.git#upstream (prior to net-2.6.24 rebase) or netdev-2.6.git#upstream (after net-2.6.24 rebase)

ACK the changes
