Hi all,

Changes since 20130806:

The ext4 tree lost its build failure.

The mvebu tree gained a build failure so I used the version from
next-20130806.

The akpm tree gained conflicts against the ext4 tree.

[ CC some netdev and wireless folks ]

Yesterday, I discovered an issue with net-next.
The patch in [1] fixed the problems in my network/wifi environment.
Hannes confirmed that virtio_net are solved, too.
Today's next-20130807 still needs it for affected people.

Could you please try the attached patch. It limits parsing the ethernet
header (by calling eth_type_trans()) to cases when the configured
protocol is ETH_P_ALL, so at least for 802.1X this should fix the
problem.

The idea behind this patch is that users setting the protocol to
something else probably do know better and so should be left alone.

Best wishes, Phil
