By the way: 2c9d6c2b871d caused breakage in smsc95xx.c which was

rolled back or adjusted after reverting 2c9d6c2b871d.  It's a giant mess.
It's possible that more drivers saw fixes due to 2c9d6c2b871d,
I haven't checked that yet.

Very well, but in order to do so, I guess we need a fix first.

Oliver, why did you want to revert 2c9d6c2b871d, i.e. in which drivers
have your users reported breakage?  Do you have bugzilla links?

I made the patch in response to a security report about a DOS attack
