I was planning to move igb over to an ixgbe style receive path at some
point anyway.  Since it seems like this is now a higher priority I
figured I would try to get the patches for it implemented in the next
week or so.  Would there be any issue with us rejecting this patch and
instead switching igb over to the ixgbe style path?

It seems I missed this part.

I use igb on my dev machine, not on prod machines, so if you are moving
igb to ixgbe, I can certainly can maintain my patch in my tree, while
you make your changes.

I'll try to get the coding for this finished up this week and I can
probably send you a copy of the patches as an RFC.  We will do testing
and hopefully we can have the patches pushed to net-next for 3.7.

Thanks,

Alex
