pktgen outputs for the various cases modified/unmodified[/others?] would
be nice, if you have a spot of time.

I am not familiar with pktgen but I seem to have it working for a simple test.
I edited the 1-1 example from ftp://robur.slu.se/pub/Linux/net-development/pktgen-testing/examples/ . The results with
and without the patch are below. Let me know if you want any other tests run. I obtained a PCI to miniPCI adapter that
will let me test my miniPCI based e100s on my main dev box. I will work on reproducing Intel's results tomorrow as time
permits. I am also still trying to get time to work on a recent kernel merge. Not a lot changed in the 100 since
2.6.18.4 except a flip from readX/writeX to ioreadX/iowriteX.

Here are the results on 2.6.18.4 with the patch I submitted on my embedded
