*
* Enhancements:
* Modularization and ifreq/ifmap support by Alan Cox.
* Rewritten by Niibe Yutaka.
* parport-sharing awareness code by Philip Blundell.
* SMP locking by Niibe Yutaka.
* Support for parallel ports with no IRQ (poll mode),

* by Nimrod Zimerman.
*
* Fixes:
* Niibe Yutaka
* - Module initialization.
* - MTU fix.
* - Make sure other end is OK, before sending a packet.
* - Fix immediate timer problem.

/*
* Original version and the name 'PLIP' from Donald Becker <becker@scyld.com>
* inspired by Russ Nelson's parallel port packet driver.
*
* NOTE:
* Tanabe Hiroyasu had changed the protocol, and it was in Linux v1.0.
* Because of the necessity to communicate to DOS machines with the
* Crynwr packet driver, Peter Bauer changed the protocol again
* back to original protocol.
*
* This version follows original PLIP protocol.
* So, this PLIP can't communicate the PLIP of Linux v1.0.
*/
/*
* To use with DOS box, please do (Turn on ARP switch):
* # ifconfig plip[0-2] arp
