Nifty, I'll take a look at this.

Just FWIW I'm not gonna apply these... for the 'proc' patch, that either needs to be moved to ethtool, or we should make a filesystem for net drivers that exports procfs-like inodes. for the 'mips' patch, it looks like the arch maintainer(s) need to fix the PCI DMA support...
