Thanks to stefanha for assisting in the debugging of this problem; he
suggested the idea behind this patch.  Any comments on how this could
be done better are appreciated.  The patch does work at least on my
test system, but I have not exercised the driver with UNDI, so the
_irq code has not been tested.

A better commit message probably could be written as well, perhaps by
someone who understands the problem better.

Thanks,
