[PATCH 2.5.74] Change appletalk/cops to dynamic allocation of net_device

Subject: [PATCH 2.5.74] Change appletalk/cops to dynamic allocation of net_device

Sender: netdev-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxx
Part of the continuing campaign to fix all network devices to allocate 
dynamically.

Built and loaded/unloaded, but do not have the hardware.  Surprisingly probe 
suceeds
even without hardware.
