ARM 2.4.26 kernel compact flash ethernet card problems

[Sriram Chadalavada]

Hi everyone,
   This is my first mail to this list.

We are trying to port Socket Communications low power
ethernet compact flash (Product #: EA2900-117) on our
embedded system (Motorola dragonball ARM MX1-ADS)
running a customized 2.4.26 kernel.

While trying to bring up the eth1 interface, the
following errors are being encountered:

# ifconfig eth1 up
In PCNET_OPEN('eth1')
         request_irq: dev->irq = 11, ei_irq_wrapperptr
= 3222179208, deve_infopt
r = 3223121216, net_deviceptr = 3253847040

8390 ei_open DONE
# eth1: interrupt(s) dropped!
SC: In EI_WATCHDOG

SC: In EI_IRQ_WRAPPER
e8390 base address : f6800300


 SC: In 8390 EI_INTERRUPT

eth1: Too much work at interrupt, status 0x20
SC: In EI_WATCHDOG


Could someone please indicate why these are being
displayed?  The same card works just fine on an x86
box(my laptop with 2.6.10 kernel).

Any help in solving this problem will be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Sriram
