    e1000e: allocate ring descriptors with dma_zalloc_coherent · aea3fca0
    Pierre-Yves Kerbrat authored
    Descriptor rings were not initialized at zero when allocated
    When area contained garbage data, it caused skb_over_panic in
    e1000_clean_rx_irq (if data had E1000_RXD_STAT_DD bit set)
    
    This patch makes use of dma_zalloc_coherent to make sure the
    ring is memset at 0 to prevent the area from containing garbage.
    
    Following is the signature of the panic:
