Well, the reason I didn't make the switch is that it doesn't really
work with the aue driver.  It needs to be converted not to use the
ugly hack that allows USB transfers in interrupt context.
Which I've not done yet, it's a little messy because of the mii callbacks
that happen in interrupt context.
