2.1 broke ArcNET (at least since 2.1.82)

Hi,

in all recent 2.1 kernels (I started with 2.1.82), including 2.1.90,
the ArcNet-driver is broken and crashes the system.

After executing the following three commands, the system crashed with
a kernel panic. There were even no entries in the syslog/messages/whateverelse,
so I couldn't grab the screen output :(

> insmod arcnet
> insmod com90xx irq=7 io=0x2e0 shmem=0xd0000
> ifconfig arc0 up

page fault from irq handler=0002
