The patch crudely forces the NIC out of operating mode before the nve(4)
driver can initialize it; this is required to properly initialize the NIC.
It is XBox-specific, as this condition can only occur on XBoxes (Most loaders
will simply leave the NIC running, forcing us to use a crude workaround like
this to get it in a workable condition). Due to the XBox-only aspect, this has
been solved in XBox-specific initialization code and not within nve(4).
