 *

 * Change History

 *

 *	Tigran Aivazian <tigran@sco.com>:	TLan_PciProbe() now uses

 *						new PCI BIOS interface.

 *	Alan Cox	<alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk>:

 *						Fixed the out of memory

 *						handling.

 *

 *	Torben Mathiasen <torben.mathiasen@compaq.com> New Maintainer!

 *

 *	v1.1 Dec 20, 1999    - Removed linux version checking

 *			       Patch from Tigran Aivazian.

 *			     - v1.1 includes Alan's SMP updates.

 *			     - We still have problems on SMP though,

 *			       but I'm looking into that.

 *

 *	v1.2 Jan 02, 2000    - Hopefully fixed the SMP deadlock.

 *			     - Removed dependency of HZ being 100.

 *			     - We now allow higher priority timers to

 *			       overwrite timers like TLAN_TIMER_ACTIVITY

 *			       Patch from John Cagle <john.cagle@compaq.com>.

 *			     - Fixed a few compiler warnings.

 *

 *	v1.3 Feb 04, 2000    - Fixed the remaining HZ issues.

 *			     - Removed call to pci_present().

 *			     - Removed SA_INTERRUPT flag from irq handler.

 *			     - Added __init and __initdata to reduce resisdent

 *			       code size.

 *			     - Driver now uses module_init/module_exit.

 *			     - Rewrote init_module and tlan_probe to

 *			       share a lot more code. We now use tlan_probe

 *			       with builtin and module driver.

 *			     - Driver ported to new net API.

 *			     - tlan.txt has been reworked to reflect current

 *			       driver (almost)

 *			     - Other minor stuff

 *

 *	v1.4 Feb 10, 2000    - Updated with more changes required after Dave's

 *			       network cleanup in 2.3.43pre7 (Tigran & myself)

 *			     - Minor stuff.

 *

 *	v1.5 March 22, 2000  - Fixed another timer bug that would hang the

 *			       driver if no cable/link were present.

 *			     - Cosmetic changes.

 *			     - TODO: Port completely to new PCI/DMA API

 *				     Auto-Neg fallback.

 *

 *	v1.6 April 04, 2000  - Fixed driver support for kernel-parameters.

 *			       Haven't tested it though, as the kernel support

 *			       is currently broken (2.3.99p4p3).

 *			     - Updated tlan.txt accordingly.

 *			     - Adjusted minimum/maximum frame length.

 *			     - There is now a TLAN website up at

 *			       http://hp.sourceforge.net/

 *

 *	v1.7 April 07, 2000  - Started to implement custom ioctls. Driver now

 *			       reports PHY information when used with Donald

 *			       Beckers userspace MII diagnostics utility.

 *

 *	v1.8 April 23, 2000  - Fixed support for forced speed/duplex settings.

 *			     - Added link information to Auto-Neg and forced

 *			       modes. When NIC operates with auto-neg the driver

 *			       will report Link speed & duplex modes as well as

 *			       link partner abilities. When forced link is used,

 *			       the driver will report status of the established

 *			       link.

 *			       Please read tlan.txt for additional information.

 *			     - Removed call to check_region(), and used

 *			       return value of request_region() instead.

 *

 *	v1.8a May 28, 2000   - Minor updates.

 *

 *	v1.9 July 25, 2000   - Fixed a few remaining Full-Duplex issues.

 *			     - Updated with timer fixes from Andrew Morton.

 *			     - Fixed module race in TLan_Open.

 *			     - Added routine to monitor PHY status.

 *			     - Added activity led support for Proliant devices.

 *

 *	v1.10 Aug 30, 2000   - Added support for EISA based tlan controllers

 *			       like the Compaq NetFlex3/E.

 *			     - Rewrote tlan_probe to better handle multiple

 *			       bus probes. Probing and device setup is now

 *			       done through TLan_Probe and TLan_init_one. Actual

 *			       hardware probe is done with kernel API and

 *			       TLan_EisaProbe.

 *			     - Adjusted debug information for probing.

 *			     - Fixed bug that would cause general debug

 *			       information to be printed after driver removal.

 *			     - Added transmit timeout handling.

 *			     - Fixed OOM return values in tlan_probe.

 *			     - Fixed possible mem leak in tlan_exit

 *			       (now tlan_remove_one).

 *			     - Fixed timer bug in TLan_phyMonitor.

 *			     - This driver version is alpha quality, please

 *			       send me any bug issues you may encounter.

 *

 *	v1.11 Aug 31, 2000   - Do not try to register irq 0 if no irq line was

 *			       set for EISA cards.

 *			     - Added support for NetFlex3/E with nibble-rate

 *			       10Base-T PHY. This is untestet as I haven't got

 *			       one of these cards.

 *			     - Fixed timer being added twice.

 *			     - Disabled PhyMonitoring by default as this is

 *			       work in progress. Define MONITOR to enable it.

 *			     - Now we don't display link info with PHYs that

 *			       doesn't support it (level1).

 *			     - Incresed tx_timeout beacuse of auto-neg.

 *			     - Adjusted timers for forced speeds.

 *

 *	v1.12 Oct 12, 2000   - Minor fixes (memleak, init, etc.)

 *

 *	v1.13 Nov 28, 2000   - Stop flooding console with auto-neg issues

 *			       when link can't be established.

 *			     - Added the bbuf option as a kernel parameter.

 *			     - Fixed ioaddr probe bug.

 *			     - Fixed stupid deadlock with MII interrupts.

 *			     - Added support for speed/duplex selection with

 *			       multiple nics.

 *			     - Added partly fix for TX Channel lockup with

 *			       TLAN v1.0 silicon. This needs to be investigated

 *			       further.

 *

 *	v1.14 Dec 16, 2000   - Added support for servicing multiple frames per.

 *			       interrupt. Thanks goes to

 *			       Adam Keys <adam@ti.com>

 *			       Denis Beaudoin <dbeaudoin@ti.com>

 *			       for providing the patch.

 *			     - Fixed auto-neg output when using multiple

 *			       adapters.

 *			     - Converted to use new taskq interface.

 *

 *	v1.14a Jan 6, 2001   - Minor adjustments (spinlocks, etc.)

 *

 *	Samuel Chessman <chessman@tux.org> New Maintainer!

 *

 *	v1.15 Apr 4, 2002    - Correct operation when aui=1 to be

 *			       10T half duplex no loopback

 *			       Thanks to Gunnar Eikman

 *

 *	Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@iki.fi>:

 *

 *	v1.15a Dec 15 2008   - Remove bbuf support, it doesn't work anyway.

 *	v1.16  Jan 6  2011   - Make checkpatch.pl happy.

 *	v1.17  Jan 6  2011   - Add suspend/resume support.
