The following patches apply to the 3.2.55 stable kernel.
In combination with the below patch (already added to
3.2.56-rc1) they fix bugs related to packet handling for
devices using the asix module.
commit: eb85569fe2d06c2fbf4de7b66c263ca095b397aa
("usbnet: remove generic hard_header_len check")
Some notes about changes in the backports:
Patch 1/3:
- Resolved a small conflict that happened because the following
backported commit was added to the 3.2.19 kernel.
commit a466c7f9d6e61fb19c2d49f82007a0700724a1e3
("asix: allow full size 8021Q frames to be received")
Patch 2/3:
- Changes to drivers/net/usb/ax88172a.c was dropped since this
file is not available in the 3.2.55 kernel.
- Introduces some static function declarations as the functions
are not used outside of asix.c (sparse is complaining about it)
- Moves a FLAG_MULTI_PACKET flag to the next line in order to be
consistent with patch 3/3.
- Drops a NULL check since kfree has it's own check for this.
These patches have been tested on a ax88772b device.
