Register interrupt handler when net device is registered. Avoids missing interrupts if the interrupt mask gets out of sync.
Signed-off-by: Pierre Ossman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- The reason this patch is needed for me is that the resume function is broken. It enables interrupts unconditionally, but the interrupt handler is only registered when the device is up. I don't have enough knowledge about the driver to fix the resume function so this patch will instead make sure that the interrupt handler is registered at all times (which can be a nice safeguard even when the resume function gets fixed).
