Hi Larry,

Found it catching dust in a corner of my mailbox ;-)

As the patch adds a new failure mechanism to dma_rxfill(). When I
changed the
comment at the start of the routine to add that information, I also
polished
the wording.

Thanks, Larry

I think there a bugzilla issue for this that you might want to reference:

I think the caller(s) should be informed or silently free the sk_buff
here so we are not leaking it.
