Usually, the best thing is to reply on the mailing-list directive, so more people can jump in. This particular issue is fixed with the following commit: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=651df2183543bc92f5dbcf99cd9e236ead0bc4c5 -- Florian -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
