Slightly improve the wording of the description of MV643XX_ETH
in Kconfig. This difference was found between the mainline and
linux-mips kernel trees.

This patch adds NAPI support for the Broadcom Sibyte SB1xxx family. The
changes are limited to adding a new config key SBMAC_NAPI to the
drivers/net/Kconfig and by adding the poll op and interrupt support to

It looks like netlink_recvmsg() has recvfrom return sematics - when
userspace buffer is too small the return value is the number of octets
actually copied, not the number which _would_ be copied, if there was
enough space.
This makes using MSG_PEEK to ensure that the buffer is large enough buggy.

If the AX.25 dialect chosen by the sysadmin is set to DAMA master / 3
(or DAMA slave / 2, if CONFIG_AX25_DAMA_SLAVE=n) ax25_kick() will fall
through the switch statement without calling ax25_send_iframe() or any
other function that would eventually free skbn thus leaking the packet.
