notifier_call_chain
fib_netdev_event

Rest of the info has scrolled off the screen.

The problem is when RH/Fedora is doing it's modprobe/rmmod to detect
what hardware is in the system since that's the only thing that would
be rmmod'ing e1000.

On the same system if I disable networking and boot, I can
modprobe/rmmod the drivers without problem. So I'd conclude that RH is
doing something special during it's probing phase, but I don't know
enough about the RH init scripts to know what it is.
