sk98lin driver for Marvell Gigabit in kernel 2.6.9

[maxer1]

So what we're discussing is that kernel 2.6.8 and 2.6.9 haven't had a 
working driver sk98lin?

The module has never gone through any name change:
/lib/modules/2.6.9/kernel/drivers/net/sk98lin/sk98lin.ko

I have dowloaded the patch from SysKonnect
http://www.syskonnect.com/syskonnect/support/driver/d0102_driver.html

There are instructions for patching the sk98lin driver.

Why hasn't anyone gone upstream on this?

Who is the kernel maintainer for this?

Confused.
