I just tried your latest -HEAD patch for msk

uname:

However during ifconfig, it gives an error.

Nov 28 16:00:16 kernel: msk0: link state changed to UP

Nov 28 16:00:54 kernel: msk0: link state changed to UP

I'm not whether it's working or not yet.  I wasn't clear if your 
e1000phy patch would tromp on the msk patch so I didn't try it.
