Thank you for your reply.
I need to use the bcm5700 driver. Otherwise, I have to reimplemented the changes that has been already implemented.
By the way, I found the reason for this bug and fixed it. It was caused by the scheduling of NET_TX_SOFTIRQ. The conflict happens when tx softirq is run. I have already disabled rx softirq as I am processing the packets at the interrupt level.
Thanks, Khaled
