== SRU Justification ==
When rebooting the Mustang board (ARM64 based) running Tianocore 3.06.25 or 3.07.09,
an IOB Error is reported.  This bug is resolved by mainline commit 8aba8474181070a30f56ffd19359f5d80665175e.

Commit 8aba84741810 is in mainline, but not tagged for a specific release as of yet.

Xenial and Yakkety also needs this fix.  However, X and Y need two prereq comits,
so that SRU request will be sent separatly.



== Fix ==
commit 8aba8474181070a30f56ffd19359f5d80665175e

    drivers: net: xgene: Fix redundant prefetch buffer cleanup

== Regression Potential ==
Low since changes are specific to xgene.

== Test Case ==
A test kernel was built with this patch and tested by the original bug 
reporter.  The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.
