The first log file is with both patchs applied and the second one with one
little change to rx8139_rx() to show if it even goes to through
" while (netif_running(dev) && received < budget
&& (RTL_R8 (ChipCmd) & RxBufEmpty) == 0) {"-section.
This was the change which I made.. so you can see in the second log file
that there won't be any of these messages after the driver has crashed.
If you remove the "if (received > 0) {" test in r8139-10.patch and keep
both patches applied, I assume you are back to a crash within 15min (instead
of within 2min as suggested by the log), right ?
