I'm not sure - the card having an OF driver might mean it's a Mac card,
needing byte swapping, whereas a card with no OF driver would be a PC
card, needing no byte swap. Or vice versa. Asante probably never built PC
specific ethernet cards so the PCI vendor/device property could be used
instead of OF data. OF data is just easier to get at :-)

Really? I'd say it's easier to look at the struct pci_dev the Tulip driver
already looks at. Besides, someone may want to try that card in a non-PowerMac,
while still having the correct MAC address.

Agreed.
