[PATCH 2/2] virtio-net: make all RX paths handle erors consistently

From: Michael S. Tsirkin
Date: Wed Nov 27 2013 - 11:28:18 EST


receive mergeable now handles errors internally.
Do same for big and small packet paths, otherwise
the logic is too hard to follow.

While I can't point at a bug this fixes, I'm not sure
there's no bug in the existing logic.
So not exactly a bug fix bug I think it's justified for net.
