The smc-ultra driver source code says that it handles SMC ultra
cards in 8390-compatible mode (8390 was the Ethernet controller
on the early NE2000's).


I don't know about SMC cards, but NE2000 cards that use the
National AT/LANTIC Ethernet controller (DP83905) can live at
these I/O base addresses:
  "The ISA I/O map comprises a block of 32 addresses which
  can be located at one of 7 base addesses (240h, 280h,
  2C0h, 300h, 320h, 340h and 360h)."

So I don't know if 0x220 needs to be added here,
but 0x240 and 0x2c0 certainly do need to be added.
