Alan Cox told me that it is almost impossible to run
the real mode initialization code from inside the
kernel.  Instead he pointed me to lrmi which is a
small app that can do it from the command line. I'm
looking into mod'ing lrmi so that it can coordinate
with the device driver and reset the secondary adapter
instead of the primary one.
