Ok then I will use rate limited print like below,
if (printk_ratelimit())
	netdev_err(tc6->netdev, "Out of memory for rx'd frame");

Yes, with the current implementation the system need to be rebooted. I 
will keep a rate limited print for the user reference so that it will 
not spam the kernel.

I prefer a rate limited print.

Sure, I will fix all the prints in the next version with the required 
approach.

Ah it is a mistake. It is supposed to be an ethernet packet size which 
is 1518 (1500 bytes MTU size + 18 bytes overhead) and it is not from OA. 
It is a mistake and will correct it in the next version.
