NAck.

sni_82596.c is a driver for the same chip but used in particular
Siemens-
Nixdorf systems.  Lasi_82596 is an Intel NIC being used in PARISC
systems.
Not a good reason th throw PA-RISC drivers into the same directory
after
all PA-RISC has no relation to MIPS at all.  So maybe they should go
into
drivers/net/ethernet/i82596 or drivers/net/ethernet/intel.  And
wherever
they go, both drivers #include lib82596.c which your patch did not
move
around. 

My bad, I had grouped these drivers because they both used lib82596.c
and had thought I had moved that file as well.
