+From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger at osdl.org>
+Subject: [PATCH] sky2: 88E803X transmit lockup
+
+The reason sky2 driver was locking up on transmit on the Yukon-FE chipset
+is that it was misconfiguring the internal RAM buffer so the transmitter
+and receiver were sharing the same space. 
+
+The code assumed there was 16K of RAM on Yukon-FE (taken from vendor driver
+sk98lin which is even more f*cked up on this). Then it assigned based on that.
+The giveaway was that the registers would only hold 9bits so both RX/TX
+had 0..1ff for space. It is a wonder it worked at all!
+
+This patch addresses this, and fixes an easily reproducible hang on Transmit.
+Only the Yukon-FE chip is Marvell 88E803X (10/100 only) are affected.
