Sorry, but I'm not really into kernel hacking - as you may have guessed,
so I'd probably need too much time to convert the BusLogic driver to a
new-style driver. But as my small patch at least makes the coldplug-part
of hotplug work, I thought it'd make sense to merge it upstream as it
may help other users. Maybe I'll learn to write drivers someday...
BTW: If the BusLogic driver is unmaintained, the MAINTAINERS file should
probably be updated.

Done, updated patch follows.
