[Precise][PATCH 2/5] be2net: Fix to trim skb for padded vlan packets to workaround an ASIC Bug

Jesse Sung jesse.sung at canonical.com
Mon Aug 20 03:54:41 UTC 2012


From: Somnath Kotur <somnath.kotur at emulex.com>

BugLink: https://launchpad.net/bugs/1035348

Fixed spelling error in a comment as pointed out by DaveM.
Also refactored existing code a bit to provide placeholders for another ASIC
Bug workaround that will be checked-in soon after this.
