Any of the two attached patches should cure the de4x5 problem.

The first one is an ad-hoc patch of drivers/net/de4x5.c,
use it if you are conservative.

The second one is an attempt of a generic patch to cure bugs
in include/asm-i386/string.h, it is more risky but up to now
I have only got success reports (admittedly few). 

Using both is essentially useless, but should not do any harm.
