2.6.23-rc3 and SKY2 driver issue

[James Corey]

I tried running a D-link gig card on kernel 2.6.21.1
and it came up fine, but when I did a sftp of 
an linux dvd ISO to it, the interface would lock 
up hard with the error

eth1: hw csum failure.

Call Trace:

So I tried running the latest snapshot 2.6.23-rc3 
and the almost the same thing happens. Only 
difference is that now the entire box locks up. 
The error is almost the same

eth1: hw csum failure.

Call Trace:
 <IRQ>  [<ffffffff804779b6>]

I see that the new kernel includes some sort of 
SKY2 DEBUG stuff. I would be happy to rerun 
the test with that turned on, given some minor 
direction.
