Could you please expand on this improvement?
This memset makes it impossible to carry control buffer information from
driver callbacks that run before .ndo_start_xmit, for example
.ndo_select_queue, to a tagger's .xmit.
It seems to me that if the drivers are to handle the CB internally from
now on, that should go for both setting and clearing of the required
fields.
