Since the e1000 change is non-trivial I'm not going to bypass
the driver author on it, sorry.
What I did do was put the netdev_alloc_skb() change into my
tree, and since I'm co-author of the tg3 driver I'll apply
that bit too.
The e1000 bit will need to go through the e1000 maintainers.
Thank you, I'll take a look at this tomorrow, as I need to digest the
patch in context.
