Linksys EG1032 rev. 3 patch

[Benjamin Lutz]

Hello,

I picked up a Linksys EG1032 yesterday, and was surprised to see that it
didn't work on FreeBSD 6.0-BETA5/i386. After some investigation I found
out that apparently Linksys has silently changed the chip on the card.

The EG1032 is a standard 32bit PCI gigabit ethernet card. Two drivers
already support a card by that name, according to the manpages and
hardware notes:

  nge(4), which works with National Semiconductor DP83820 / DP83821
  chips.

  sk(4), which works with SysKonnect SK-984x and SK-982x chips.

Now, this EG1032 I got here, marked as "rev. 3", comes with a Realtek
RTL8169S chip. Unfortunately, it seems that the device ID was not
changed, it is still 0x1032, which made the sk(4) driver try and fail to
attach to the card.

I got the card working with the two patches below.

Cheers
Benjamin
