Is it really safe ignoring write to this register? If yes, it's probably
a good idea to explain why in a comment. In any case, if supporting this
register is easy to do, it would be the best option.
I think it is safe. Please see an updated comment below.
And though implementing this register might be possible, I suppose it
is not worth to supporting FrameTooLong detection, for now at least.
Thank you for comments.

Subject: [PATCH] lan9118: Ignore write to MAC_VLAN1 register
Since linux 2.6.38, smsc911x driver writes to VLAN1 registger.
Since this register only affects FrameTooLong detection, ignoring
write to this register should be safe.
