tlug: 2.2.0 interesting bug

[Scott Stone <sstone@example.com>]

If you turn on the CONFIG_PC110_PAD option in the 2.2.0 kernel (directly
into the kernel,  not a module), networking will fail miserably.  If you
have an Intel eepro100 board, it will hard lock the machine.

If you can get it to boot, you can modprobe your network driver, but cat
/proc/interrupts will show a pc110_pad on the IRQ that was assigned to
your network card...

Anyway, sorry if this was posted on the linux-kernel list, but I'm
gambling that most people here aren't on it :)
