Greetings all, Patch is against 2.2.17, drivers/net/lance.c. I believe this to be "obviously correct," but please correct me if I'm wrong. This moves a reference to skb->len to before the possible dev_kfree_skb(skb) call. Though it appears to work as is, I suspect it is incorrect. Please apply or let me know why. Eli ps. It's an attachment rather than inline because I can't seem to get Netscape (4.71) to do that without replacing tabs with spaces. Grr. --------------------.
