You are correct.

SNAT is not supposed to be used that way.. better would be NETMAP.
But still I feel it is not right aproach.

Okey, lets cut it. I know that this patch is for very specific setups
that are used very rary. I rather wanted to have tech talk here about
how I've done certain things.

Lets it leave it as is. Patch is working fine (both SMP and non SMP hosts).
If someone will be interested in it, can pick it up and mail me directly.

Regards,
Borg
