	- For the EP100TX, removed packet copy on transmit when handling
	  fragmented buffers.

	- Added flow control that blocks the upper layers should we
	  have a small number of buffers.  This eliminates the need
	  to copy when using EP100TX.

	- Added the AUTOSENS.386 file that contains the 10/100 EP100TX
	  support. We now support 10/100 powerup and dynamic autosensing
	  on EP100TX devices that are SROM compliant with format version
	  one.
