[06/55] qlcnic: limit skb frags for non tso packet

From: Greg KH
Date: Fri Apr 29 2011 - 15:09:43 EST


2.6.38-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Amit Kumar Salecha <amit.salecha@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 91a403caf0f26c71ce4407fd235b2d6fb225fba9 upstream.

Machines are getting deadlock in four node cluster environment.
All nodes are accessing (find /gfs2 -depth -print|cpio -ocv > /dev/null)
200 GB storage on a GFS2 filesystem.
This result in memory fragmentation and driver receives 18 frags for
1448 byte packets.
For non tso packet, fw drops the tx request, if it has >14 frags.

Fixing it by pulling extra frags.
