Before I delve in and apply this patch I wanted to know whether 
increasing the umax value (deliberately or not) is a good thing or a bad 
thing with the configuration I have as it was my understanding that umax 
is (usually) set to the MTU value on the device to which this flow 
relates, which, evidently, isn't the case with what I have seen so far, 
so there must be a reason as to why that is.

I'll check that later this evening and will query the dev list if it 
turns out that tc is setting these on its own account ignoring what I 
have specified via shorewall.

It looks as though there is another reason to contact the dev list then!
