Shouldn't this be:

               dma_addr = dma_map_single(dev, skb->data, XGENE_ENET_MAX_MTU,
                                         DMA_TO_DEVICE);

You just allocated the skb and nothing is in it, so ->len is zero.

And here, should be:

	dma_unmap_single(dev, pa, XGENE_ENET_MAX_MTU, DMA_TO_DEVICE);

You want to unmap the whole buffer, not just the part actually used.

The underlying code works with pages, so the existing code may work by
chance, but you get err_printks is you turn on dma debug.
