 You should be passing all frames up to the software stack.

I was originally fixing the issue where the driver was only allocating
rx buffers big enough for the configured MTU and got a bit
overzealous. I pulled out the filtering hunks so we always allocate
skbs large enough to handle a full size jumbo frame and pass everything
up to the stack...new patch to follow.
