Re: de4x5

Hi Paul,

I wrote [copy to you]:

When trying the de4x5 using 2.6.32 - which is what I can boot into
without too much problems - it did lock the machine while starting the
interface (ifconfig up). Sorry, but I do not feel like digging into this
just now.

[..]

I changed the name from 'DE434/5' to 'DE434_5' since the slash seems to
be no good idea within a file/directory name. This does yield a lockup
with no message.

It hangs due to the usage of synchronize_irq within the interrupt
handler. It does not look like it was intended usage for this. Removing
this code it does not lock up anymore. But it is not working either.
Looking through the code it uses the same configuration values for BNC
and AUI which de2104x uses for AUI.

Changes done so far are appended as patch.
