Note: if you are using 3c59x.c, the public version is licensed only
under the GPL.  While you may personally use a ported version of the
driver, you may not distribute the resulting driver in any way.

If you are using the 3Com 3c905.c driver, you should contact them for
information on non-GPL use.

There is no single, simple answer to that question.  If you only have 16
bit operations, you may not be able to write a correct device driver.
