The PI2 interface card driver does a probe to autodetect the card. But
if it probes the IO address that an SMC/WD 8xx3 ethernet card is
living at, then the wd device driver will not detect the ethernet
card.
Anyone have some suggestions to make the PI2 driver probe more
friendly to other ethernet cards, or make the WD driver better at
detecting cards that got probed by someone else?
