Subject[PATCH] Handle tulip errata (again) in 2.4.9
Linus,

Please apply this tiny patch which is a workaround for a DC21143 erratum
(or application note or whatever the latest name is). The old workaround
was accidently hidden behind an experimental CONFIG in the latest driver
update.

Without this patch I get a 98% packet loss... :-)
