While trying to backtrack a different bug with this, I discovered that
unloading the mv643xx_eth module triggers a kernel panic on the GuruPlug Server
Plus.

This is with the ArmedSlack (Slackware for ARM) -current installer, but it also
occurs on the real system -- I'm only able to get a trace from the installer
though, for whatever reason.

I'm going to file a different bug for it, but the original issue leading to
this is a regression from 2.6.35 and earlier (I know 2.6.35 was fine), no
traffic leaves on the ethernet ports, even though they configure correctly and
/sys/class/net/<if>/carrier shows '1'.  More on that in the correct bug report
though :)
