being called and get an mtu of 1500 on virbr0 using his birdge.sh script.
virtio_net_receive2 was trying to transfer a 1534 byte packet (1524 'size' + 10 'virtio_net_hdr')
and the guest only had 1524 bytes of space in its input descriptors.
Okay, that sounds like a bug in Dustin's version of the guest virtio-net
driver - if it is only supplying 1524 byte buffers, it should not be
saying it supports the VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_TSO4 feature

Fix oops on 2.6.25 guest (Rusty Russell)
I believe this is behind the following:
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+source/linux/+bug/331128
virtio_pci in 2.6.25 didn't do feature negotiation correctly: it
acked every
bit. Fortunately, we can detect this.

It looks like Rusty's fix wasn't enough. If I change virtio-net to only
advertise F_MAC, we don't run into this problem.
