Just a minor nit:
Could we change the default so that if someone adds support for a new 
IGP (and misses this function) we default to either the newest or 
preferably to none? I've just seen too much poorly maintained code in 
this driver and defaulting to the oldest is hence a bad idea.
Otherwise it's fine.
That would require making an exhaustive list of older chipset types.
It could probably be inferred through inspection of the code, but I
worry about making assumptions in this area...

Thanks,
