[PATCH 3.19 019/177] net: pktgen: disable xmit_clone on virtual devices

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 52d6c8c6ca125872459054daa70f2f1c698c8e75 ]

Trying to use burst capability (aka xmit_more) on a virtual device
like bonding is not supported.

For example, skb might be queued multiple times on a qdisc, with
various list corruptions.
