My plan was to use the old uip web server. But I need real hardware for the
test which is the reason, it is not done yet.

I would prefer an interrupt driven driver. But to my suprise, I found that the
silversurfer uses the NMI, not the IRQ line - in my eyes a wrong design
decision, because using the IRQ would have removed a lot of problems with disk
routines and is uncritical for a device that has a 16 byte builtin buffer. So
maybe there's really a use for the polling driver.

Please keep in mind that variables must be initialized in INIT, because
otherwise the driver may not work correctly when statically linked.
