IMHO, until this is proven to affect several types of cards (IOW several
entries from pci_tbl[]), I would not define a general purpose flag, but
rather test based on card type. This just makes it clear that only this
card is affected; and keep in mind that this is just a kludge, Andrew
already had the extra_tx_reset flag some time ago and recently
removed it after finding the Right Way (tm) to do things.

Sincerely,
