You might need to rebase you patch. A patch to netback went it recently.
Do you mean 210c34dcd8d912dcc740f1f17625a7293af5cb56 "xen-netback: add support for multicast control"? If so I didn't see any specific issue while rebasing on the latest linus' master.

The PV network protocol is using 4KB page granularity. The goal of this patch is to allow a Linux using 64KB page granularity working as a network backend on a non-modified Xen. It's only necessary to adapt the ring size and break skb data in small chunk of 4KB. The rest of the code is relying on the grant table code.
