Andrew,
can you drop this patch? Discussion and testing showed that it does the reverse
of what it needs to be for the cornercases and doesn't fix anything.
old case 255 max_frame -> 256 buffer -> 512 slab
this patch 255 max_frame -> 512 buffer -> 1024 slab (!)
Thanks,
Auke

Subject: e1000: account for NET_IP_ALIGN when calculating bufsiz
From: Auke Kok <[email protected]>

to reduce slab allocation by half.
