Please apply. Thanks. PS. It would be nice to have this code in final 2.4.21. In comparison to 2.4.21pre7, this version fixes some small bugs and problems (TX packet latency on HD64570-based boards), and provides support for Ethernet over HDLC and Frame-Relay, while being API/ABI compatible (use of new features require new version of user-space sethdlc tool). -- Krzysztof Halasa Network Administrator
