This patch causes a virtio-net interface failure when booting sh4 images
in qemu. The test case is nothing special: Just try to get an IP address
using udhcpc. If it fails, udhcpc reports:

udhcpc: started, v1.33.0
udhcpc: sending discover
FAIL

Can you investigate where the incoming packet is dropped ?

Unless I am missing something, packets are not dropped. It looks more
like udhcpc gets bad indigestion in the receive path and exits immediately.
Plus, it doesn't happen all the time; sometimes it receives the discover
response and is able to obtain an IP address.

Overall this is quite puzzling since udhcpc exits immediately when the problem
is seen, no matter which option I give it on the command line; it should not
really do that.

Could you strace both cases and report differences you can spot ?

strace -o STRACE -f -s 1000 udhcpc

I'll give it a try. It will take a while; I'll need to add strace to my root
file systems first.

As a quick hack, I added some debugging into the kernel; it looks like
the data part of the dhcp discover response may get lost with your patch
in place.
