Hmmm, doesn't apply cleanly to net-next for some reason:

[davem@drr net-next]$ git am --signoff net-next-tg3-use-netdev_alloc_frag-API.patch 
Applying: tg3: use netdev_alloc_frag() API
error: patch failed: drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/tg3.c:5631
error: drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/tg3.c: patch does not apply
