There are only 4 RX URBs. Why is alloc_skb() failing silently? Or is that by design? I was under impression that we should not have error messages for allocation failures but is that only for kmalloc() & co? I did a quick look and in wireless drivers some of the alloc_skb() callers print an error and some fail silently. I think we should start printing errors for all alloc_skb() calls.
