In some cases the MAC would experience mass receive packet duplication that could in rare cases lead to a stall from overflow. The fix for this is contained in the third commit. The first 3 commits represent bug fixes that should be applied to the net repository and are candidates for backporting to stable releases. The remaining commits are enhancements which is why the set is being submitted to net-next but they are implemented on top of the fixes. The first fix is provided as justification for why the set isn't split between a net submission and a net-next submission. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
