The asix driver is not up to date, and does not work

Bug Description

The xen kernel is missing the fix to make the asix driver work again:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=94d433630a1e63d383d592d488f60581e0d98190

Perhaps more amusingly, it actually has the inverse of that patch, since the stock kernel does have this fix, and the xen patch removes it.

Removing that portion of that patch and rebuilding the kernel allows my FA100 to work properly under xen.
