Does this replace pcn(4) which supported the DMA-capable lnc(4) chips as well:
o AMD Am53C974/Am79C970/Am79C974 PCnet-PCI
o AMD Am79C970A PCnet-PCI II
o AMD Am79C971 PCnet-FAST
o AMD Am79C972 PCnet-FAST+
o AMD Am79C973/Am79C975 PCnet-FAST III
o AMD Am79C976 PCnet-PRO
o AMD PCnet/Home HomePNA
o Allied-Telesis LA-PCI
o Contec C-NET(98)S (PC-98)
o NEC SV-98/2-B05, B06
