[PATCH net 3/3] xen-netback: BUG_ON in xenvif_rx_action() not catching overflow

From: Paul Durrant <hidden>
Date: 2014-03-27 12:23:23
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest, xen network backend driver · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds, Wei Liu, Paul Durrant

The BUG_ON to catch ring overflow in xenvif_rx_action() makes the assumption
that meta_slots_used == ring slots used. This is not the case for GSO
packets. This patch changes the test to actually check ring slots.
