Re: [patch 2.6.13 0/5] normalize calculations of rx_dropped

Some fixes to normalize how rx_dropped is calculated.  This is the
product of a discussion on netdev on or about 18 August 2005 w/
the subject '[RFC] stats: how to count "good" packets dropped by
hardware?'

Patches for 3c59x, e1000, e100, ixgb, and tg3 to follow.

For e.g. e1000, are we sure that packets dropped by hardware are accounted elsewhere?
