[vortex-bug] DPD FSH for Cyclone/Tornado

[Bogdan Costescu]

Hi,

The drivers are all using in boomerang_start_xmit:

vp->tx_ring[entry].status = cpu_to_le32(skb->len | TxIntrUploaded);

This is correct for Boomerang cards (90x), but not for Cyclone/Tornado
(90xB and 90xC) - page 86 in C docs. Setting the FSH to the above value is
harmles (see the comment about rounding at page 89 in C docs), as this
field was redesigned with compatibilty in mind; it should be set
to TxIntrUploaded only, for the current use.

Sincerely,

Bogdan Costescu
