Hi David,

I think there are some things that should be done here still.

Generally speaking, this is an old driver for hardware that most of
us will never see again, so the concern is that any changes may
break some existing configurations we can't easily test.  In light
of that, the change footprint should be minimized and/or be
bisectable wherever possible.

For example, if I'm reading it correctly, you've changed the module
behaviour so that on module load an autoprobe takes place, where
that was not the case before, because the probe is invasive.

It looks like you've got several semi-independent fixes here, plus
some shuffling of code blocks and a couple of needless white
space changes which all add up to a pretty big patch to an old
legacy driver.  I think it would be good if this was broken down
a bit and had a reduced footprint.  It would also be good to know
if you have tested both module and non-module (build and/or boot).

Additional comments inline.

Thanks,
Paul.
This ne2000 and the previous cr4 problem found when enabling suspend to
disk on my i486 with a PnP ISA NE2000 and Creative SB Live in the
trunk of my car.  It is providing in car podcast entertainment.  Must
be a unique setup.

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] [PATCH] ne.c fix for hibernate and rmmod oops fix

Removing the module would cause a kernel oops as platform_driver_probe
failed to detect a device and unregistered the platform driver on
module init, and cleanup_module would unregister the already
unregistered driver.  The suspend and resume functions weren't being
called and the network card didn't function across a suspend to disk
followed by a power cycle.
The suspend/resume fix looks to be a candidate for a simple
fix (i.e. separate patch) in its own right.
platform_driver support was added earlier, but without any
platform_device_register* calls I don't think it was being used.  Now
all devices are registered using platform_device_register_simple and
pointers are kept to unregister the ones that the probe failed for or
unregister all devices on module shutdown.  init_module no longer
calls ne_init to reduce confusion (and multiple unregister paths that
caused the rmmod oops).

With the devices now registered they are added to the platform driver
and get suspend and resume events.  A call to pnp_stop_dev and
pnp_start_dev now shutsdown and initializes plug and play devices.

netif_device_detach(dev) was added before unregister_netdev(dev) when
removing the region as occationally I would see a race condition where
the device was still being used in unregister_netdev.
This too sounds like it could be an independent fix on its own. I'd
say do those 1st and then the platform patch won't be as big.

I think your change puts the above as the human readable name in
/proc/ioports when you have a bad clone.  As such it probably should
be something like "ne2000(bad sig)" or similar, so it doesn't look
like some resource management bug to an end user.
