Subject: [PATCH] irda: Add irda_skb_cb qdisc related padding
Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2008 23:49:06 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081217224906.GA5783@sortiz.org> (raw)
Hi Dave,
We need to pad irda_skb_cb in order to keep it safe accross dev_queue_xmit()
calls. This is some ugly and temporary hack triggered by recent qisc code
changes.
Even though it fixes bugzilla.kernel.org bug #11795, it will be replaced by a
proper fix before 2.6.29 is released.
