Re: severe regression in alx ethernet driver

Jarod Wilson [off-list ref] :

They do at least have a signed-off-by in the patches attached to the bug,
so I'm working on touching up the descriptions and formatting, regression
testing them on my laptop that has an alx-driven E2200 in it (which isn't
affected by this bug), and then I can ship them up for proper review.

You can forget the last refill-me-harder patch and save a roundtrip.
The driver should 1) prohibit holes in its receive ring, 2) allocate before
pushing data up in the stack and 3) drop packets when it can't allocate a
fresh buffer.
