    [PATCH] e1000: revert to single descriptor for legacy receive path · a1415ee6
    Jeff Kirsher authored
    A recent patch attempted to enable more efficient memory usage by using
    only 2kB descriptors for jumbo frames.  The method used to implement this
    has since been commented upon as "illegal" and in recent kernels even
    causes a BUG when receiving ip fragments while using jumbo frames.
    This patch simply goes back to the way things were.  We expect some
    complaints due to order 3 allocations failing to come back due to this
    change.
