I vote getting ether82563.c updated.  I=92m merging, but not done yet.

The big fail was my auth server sitting on a Soekris net6501.  Great
machine, on 9atom.  Plan 9 faults if you try to boot it w/o *nomp=3D1.
And when you do boot it w/ *nomp=3D1, Plan 9 doesn=92t recognize the =
mSATA
device in it, which kind of ruins the whole idea of using it as an
auth server.
