Subject: [PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 126/146] staging: vt6655: vnt_tx_packet fix dma_idx selection.

3.19.8-ckt2 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Malcolm Priestley <tvboxspy@...il.com>

commit c312530589ed9524fc7cc921105dc9b67ea32d6a upstream.

There is still a problem that dma_idx is causing packets to
go onto the wrong tx path.

Protect dma_idx fully with the present first lock and
use pTDInfo->byFlags TD_FLAGS_NETIF_SKB to set MACvTransmit.
