Re: [PATCH] fec: fix tx bounce handling

["Tim Sander" <tim.sander@hbm.com>]

Hi

I forward ported the patch i have for 3.0-rt (which was working on a quick test) 
to the net-dev  branch with the patch from Eric mixed in. 

But a quick test revealed that dmesg is full of:
eth0: tx queue full!.
Not good! Any suggestions on this?

Tim

Heres my patch for 3.3:
