3.16.50-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@xxxxxxxxx> commit 7a4b813cb739ce598ffbad2e84d19d13fa23e25d upstream. rtl_tx() is the TX reclamation process whereas rtl8169_tx_clear_range() does the TX ring cleaning during shutdown, both of these functions should call dev_consume_skb_any() to be drop monitor friendly. Fixes: cac4b22f3d6a ("r8169: do not account fragments as packets") Fixes: eb781397904e ("r8169: Do not use dev_kfree_skb in xmit path") Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
