Subject: [net-next-2.6 PATCH 2/3] be2net: fix bad queue traversal in be_rx_q_clean()
Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2009 19:13:23 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090810134323.GA10857@serverengines.com> (raw)

Using "for(tail != head)" to traverse a queue from tail to head
fails in the case of a fully filled queue. Use "for(used != 0)" instead.
