Subject: [patch 01/11] prism54 : Fix frame length
Date: Fri, 23 Dec 2005 14:27:18 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20051223222718.GB18252@kroah.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20051223222652.GA18252@kroah.com>

[-- Attachment #1: prism54_frame_size.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1581 bytes --]

From: Roger While <simrw@sim-basis.de>

prism54 is leaking information when passing transmits to the firmware.
There is no requirement to adjust the length to >= ETH_ZLEN.
Just pass the skb length (after possible adjustment).
