Looks nicer to me too.  I made this modification and added some
more verbiage to the changelog as suggested by Jeff Garzik when
I applied this, as follows:

commit 98efd8a6be79550767f5a9be6f3db8e7e9b747da
Author: Matt Carlson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date:   Sat May 5 12:47:25 2007 -0700

    [TG3]: Eliminate the TG3_FLAG_5701_REG_WRITE_BUG flag.
    
    This patch removes the use of the TG3_FLAG_5701_REG_WRITE_BUG flag.
    It's logic is only used to set a function pointer and thus the
    logic can be collapsed and the flag removed.
