Oh -- found it. It's still in 2.6:
static void
fixup_broken_pcnet32(struct pci_dev* dev)
{
if ((dev->class>>8 == PCI_CLASS_NETWORK_ETHERNET)) {
dev->vendor = PCI_VENDOR_ID_AMD;
pci_write_config_word(dev, PCI_VENDOR_ID, PCI_VENDOR_ID_AMD);
}
}
DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_HEADER(PCI_VENDOR_ID_TRIDENT, PCI_ANY_ID,
fixup_broken_pcnet32);
Wonder why it isn't working now ... someone with a PPC box needs to check
(a) whether this function is being called and (b) if it is called, why
it's not doing what it's supposed to.
