3.2.49-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The workaround introduced by commit e5195c1f31f3 'r8169: fix 8168evl frame padding.' upstream was incorrect and was entirely replaced in commit b423e9ae49d7 'r8169: fix offloaded tx checksum for small packets.' On the 3.2.y branch, the first commit has effectively been applied twice: the first time by itself, and the second time in commit 3cf40360f431 which squashed the two upstream commits together. That left us with both the incorrect and the correct workaround in place. Remove the incorrect one.
