Hi

It seems very close from drivers/net/ftmac100.c one. Are you sure a
factorization is not possible ?

BTW, it seems I missed the fact that ftmac100_alloc_rx_page() used a
GFP_KERNEL allocation, while its called from softirq context (from
ftmac100_rx_packet())=20


Same problem of course in this Gigabit driver.
