[PATCH] 8390 Tx fix for non i386 machines

Linux kernel mirror (for testing) git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git

kernel os linux

While this is true, E8390_CMD is zero on i386, and thus there should be no
effect for these machines. Machines like Mac, Amiga etc. which use Alan's
clever register mapping may have a non-zero E8390_CMD and result in bogus
"transmitter busy" type messages from this bug.

Fixes BUG# 3991.
