Thanks, Mike.

Hello James,

This patch is actually a critical bug fix as the 1G bnx2 driver no
longer supports the netdev->base_addr in the current kernel of the scsi
tree.  This means that Broadcom's 1G Linux iSCSI offload solution would
not work at all without this patch.  If at all possible, please consider
including this patch into the fixes branch.

Thanks,
Eddie
