> introduced a regression for i.MX28. The swap_buffer() function doing
> the endian conversion of the received data on i.MX28 may access memory
> beyond the actual packet size in the DMA buffer. fec_enet_copybreak()
> does not copy those bytes, so that the last bytes of a packet may be
> filled with invalid data after swapping.
> This will likely lead to checksum errors on received packets.
> E.g. when trying to mount an NFS rootfs:

> Do the byte swapping and copying to the new skb in one go if

Actually that is completely f*cked....
