Pertinant highlights from Myricom CHANGES file include:

- Make sure invalid external smbus activity cannot affect performance
- Fix to avoid a bug where the link could sometimes stay reported as
   up on after unplugging the cable.
- For 8B NIC, make smbus connection passive at init to avoid
   possible address conflicts
- Increase number of slices to 17 for multi-slice fw
- Fix a bug where packets dropped because of link_overflow could
     be occasionally reported as bad_crc32
- Add selectable failover strategy for dual-port chip: symmetric or primary/backup
- On failover, send RARP broadcast to make the change immediately
  known to the network
- Change endianess for PCI Device Serial Number
- For dual-port NICs, time to failover is now a few microsecs
    instead of a few millisecs.
