I do have several e100 based adapters still working and a few old systems with plain old PCI that still function, however all of these older systems have broken power management. Regardless of if I use the kernel before or after this patch is applied, or even if the e100 driver is loaded or not I can't get a reliable suspend / resume cycle to work on them.

I did run some basic regression with this patch against the remaining pro100 cards I could scrounge up and aside from broken power management (again with or without patch) the system seems good, so (hesitantly) from a regression perspective I will go ahead and say...
