bge drivers does not work for 3COM 3C996-SX / 3C996B-T

[Hideki Yamamoto]

Hi,

After all, SUN recognise the FreeBSD box with 3COM 3C996-SX 
by setting adv_1000autoneg_cap = 0 in /kernel/drv/ge.conf on Solaris,
As 3COM 3C996-SX does not support MIIbus, my patch I wrote last year
was meaningless.

Regards,
Hideki Yamamoto
