Re: bus width differences
We've been using the lan9115 (16-bit interface) with the SMSC linux derived driver (patch I posted back in, uh, October 2006) and the lan9115 chip will work correctly with 32 bit code accesses over the 16 bit interface.
The host we're using is an RMI Au1200 which has a sensible static bus interface.
That said, I can see that using pointer constants for register access like this new code does is an issue for code portability.
