Make the "pegasus" driver scream less loudly in the face of
problems as it initializes, avoiding hundreds of messages:
- ratelimit some key error messages
- avoid some spurious diagnostics caused by strange codeflow
And fix one instance of goofy indentation.

The Belkin bluetooth dongle unfortunately shares the vendor and device id
with the network adapter which causes lockups whenever the bluetooth
dongle is inserted.

Remove superfluous in-atomic() check; ethtool MII ops are called from task

It's been a useless no-op for long enough in 2.6 so I figured it's time to
remove it. The number of people that could object because they're
maintaining unified 2.4 and 2.6 drivers is probably rather small.

This patch covers something like this:
dev = alloc_*dev(...
...
priv = netdev_priv(dev);
memset(priv, 0, sizeof(*priv));
The memset() here is superfluous. alloc_netdev() uses kzalloc()
to allocate needed memory so there is no need to zero the priv region
twice.

This patch fixes a potential null dereference bug where we dereference
pegasus before a null check. This patch simply moves the dereferencing
after the null check.

It is preferable to group drivers by usage (net, scsi, ATA, ...) than
by bus. When reviewing drivers, the [PCI|USB|PCMCIA|...] maintainer
is probably less qualified on networking issues than a networking
maintainer. Also, from a practical standpoint, chips often
appear on multiple buses, which is why we do not put drivers into
drivers/pci/net.
