  Here, it stop once an untransmitted buffer is encountered...

Yes, I see that now.

I wonder if we should:

a) paramatise ravb_tx_free() so it may either clear all transmitted buffers
  (current behaviour) or all buffers (new behaviour).
b) provide a different version of this loop in ravb_ring_free()

What are your thoughts?

   I'm voting for (b).

After looking at this issue for another time, I'll vote for (a). Sorry for back-and-forth on this matter -- I somehow thought we could do a better job by scanning all the TX ring...

Ok, something like this?

+					entry /= NUM_TX_DESC;
+					dev_kfree_skb_any(priv->tx_skb[q][entry]);
+					priv->tx_skb[q][entry] = NULL;
+				}
+			}
+		}
+

This is only different from ravb_tx_free() by not stopping on unfinished descriptor, so we must be good with adding an extra param to it...
