Probably not much, but that isn't my point.  I find it really annoying when
someone posts a patch to fix a specific bug, and the reply is "why don't you fix
this other bug too, while you're at it?"

Right now, the 8313ERDB will generate a machine check if you boot it with the
top-of-tree kernel.  This patch fixes that.  For 1.3.4, if you like, we can
submit a patch that removes all MAC and IP address macros from all 83xx boards.
