I cannot reproduce the problem, so maybe I had a funky build
or just got unlucky with some extraneous bug.

With that patch applied, rtl8169 seems to support rx-all
and rx-fcs just fine (tested with frames with bad FCS).

If/when the framework patches get accepted I'll post
the 8139too and rtl8169 patches for formal review.

Thanks,
Ben
