Does anyone know of specific reasons to use m_devget()
to extract received packets from the rx buffer in the "dc"
driver, as opposed to passing up the mbuf and just
replacing it with a fresh one in the controller's queue ?

Other drivers just happily do the latter, including the "de"
driver, so there seems to be no problem with the chipset
in handling this ?

Bill, any comments ?

        cheers
