I used to get errors like:
/lib/modules/2.4.6/kernel/drivers/net/pcmcia/xircom_tulip_cb.o: symbol for parameter reverse_probe not found
until I applied this patch, and now the card is working well.

I have grepped about the kernel sources for reverse_probe, and not
found anything relevant. Perhaps someone less ignorant than me would
have removed the parameter. I tried deleting the most obvious line
but that did not work.
