The early `re' devices were PCI only and used separate PHYs (often
Marvell).  I hear all current `re' devices use the integrated RealTek
phy. we should really add rgephy to all kernel configs that pull in re(4).

The re(4) manpage should be updated to mention both PCI and cardbus
attachments, and possibly cite rgephy, also. That we don't is
probably my bad.

That sounds pretty much what I observed when I was working on the
cardbus frontend, too, though I dont recall warm-boot status.
