Subject[PATCH 6/6] 6lowpan: return the dev_queue_xmit() return value from lowpan_xmit()
Date
dev_queue_xmit() will return a positive value if the packet could not be
queued, often because the real network device (in our case the mac802154
wpan device) has its queue stopped. lowpan_xmit() should return that value
to the higher layer so the higher layer will retry sending the packet.
