PROBLEM: e100 driver not working when bridge and vlan configured.

[krunal <krunal.patel@elitecore.com>]

I have seen this bug in many threads also checked 
"http://www.mailinglistarchive.com/xen-users@lists.xensource.com/msg19768.html", 
but nothing works for me.

I am having 4 nics, driver for 2 nics is e1000 and 2 nics is e100.

Setup
( 192.168.1.1)br0-----------eth0
                         |-------------eth1

traffic flows through my bridge machine and i can ping 192.168.1.1, vlan 
traffic also pass through it.

I am not able to ping 192.168.1.1 using vlan interface

so i created and added vlan interfaces to bridge
( 192.168.1.1)br0-----------eth0
                         |-------------eth1
                         |-------------eth0.3
                         |-------------eth1.3

Still i am not able to ping 192.168.1.1.

I then removed eth0, and eth1 from br0
( 192.168.1.1)br0-----------eth0.3
                         |-------------eth1.3

Now I am able to ping 192.168.1.1

My kernel is linux-2.6.27.45 and e100 driver is "3.5.23-k4-NAPI" which 
comes with kernel.


Same scenario works fine with e1000 driver.

This bug is already reported and i am not able to find any patch for it.
