Would you be OK if I expanded the comment like this?

DaveM already applied it to his tree, and sent a pull request to Linus.

This would limit the runtime test to the case where it is actually
needed (untested):

#elif defined(CONFIG_ATARI) && defined(CONFIG_Q40)
/* multiplatform m68k kernel - the Atari ROM-port adapter is 8-bit,
Q40 uses ISA */
#  define DCR_VAL (MACH_IS_ATARI ? 0x48 : 0x49)
#elif defined(CONFIG_ATARI) /* no Q40 support - 8-bit mode on Atari ROM port */
#  define DCR_VAL 0x48
#else
#  define DCR_VAL 0x49
#endif

MACH_IS_ATARI already evaluates to a constant on single-platform
kernels, so this is optimized at compile time.
Hence there's not really a need for this.

Are there any other m68k platforms that use the ne.c driver, Geert?
apne, hydra and zorro8390 all have their own separate drivers - any
others?

Not that I'm aware of. Only Q40 has CONFIG_NE2000 in defconfig.

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
