Just so people know, the le driver is limited in the following ways:
1: It supports only 1 unit. See interrupt routines for details.
2: It does NOT support MULTICAST.
3: It does NOT make full use of 4.4 kernel features, actually it
really doesn't use much from 4.4 except the new config method.
All 3 are being worked on but I figured 1 working card was better
for the people using the port than no working cards... So, there
is ALOT of room for improvement in the driver but it's a good
starting point.
FYI,
