> You will see many lost rx packets and i have no idea why???
You need to understand, the packet drops were always happening. Both
before Eric's patch and afterwards.
The only change is that now they are counted in the statistics, so
you can actually _see_ it.
So asking to have Eric's patch reverted will only hide the situation
from you again, and is therefore quite a silly request.
