BTW, there are two regression fixes for forcedeth:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121894389018584&w=4 http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121917167232014&w=4
that fix the regressions tracked as:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11358 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11361
respectively and both are more than 2 weeks old now.
Is there any chance to push them upstream or is there anything wrong with them?
Thanks, Rafael
