Subject: [PATCH] Better fixup for the orinoco driver
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2c36ed22c6f64de94c6c3b7258dd7285bb093401;p=linux-beck.git

[PATCH] Better fixup for the orinoco driver

The latest kernel added a pretty ugly fix for the orinoco etherleak bug
which contains bogus skb->len checks already done by the caller and causes
copies of all odd sized frames (which are quite common)

While the skb->len check should be ripped out the other fix is harder to do
properly so I'm proposing for this the -mm tree only until next 2.6.x so
that it gets tested.

Instead of copying buffers around blindly this code implements a padding
aware version of the hermes buffer writing function which does padding as
the buffer is loaded and thus more cleanly and without bogus 1.5K copies.
