From a quick look:
The debugging ioctls look quite dangerous. iirc they are not root projected
by higher level code. Either remove them or add a root check at least,
otherwise you'll have a potential root hole.
All the ARCH_PPC64 ifdefs shouldn't be needed. Can you remove that?
If there are problems in ppc64 code they should be fixed there, not worked
around. Same with the ifdefs for kernel 2.6 features. An driver integrated
into the kernel should not contain such ifdefs.
mdelay(100) is quite evil. Better make that a schedule_timeout() in
process context.
ETH_GREGS/GEEPROM/SEEPROM/GSTRINGS ioctl handlers: seems to leak memory on
error paths
ETH_SEEPROM: len should be limit checked
Running the driver through scripts/Lindent may not be a bad idea.
initNic: the jiffies check does not handle jiffies wrapping. 2.6 forces a
jiffies wrap
5 minutes after boot, so this may be fatal. Use the right macros for this.
init_nic: x86-64 supports consistent dma masks too. in fact they should be just
used unconditionally.
