Sigh...
Applying 'e1000: revert to single descriptor for legacy receive path'
fatal: corrupt patch at line 14
I don't understand, at all. I used stg export (git) to generate the patch
and read the patch into mail with pine, just like i've done before. What
was line 14? Don't spend any time debugging it. I think I just won't be
using pine any more to send patches.
Anyway, we'll have a git pull request to you shortly, as a reply to this
thread.
