Jeff, I strongly suggest that you apply patches #1 and #2 (but preferably all) to #upstream-fixes since these patches fix the -absolutely- broken jumbo frames code in e1000e. On top of that patches #1 and #2 only touch the jumbo frame codepath, so the impact is zero to the normal way people use these cards. patch #3 is an optimization, patch #4 is mostly cosmetical.
