The above link was mangled.

I guess you will have to re-submit to cope at least with Andrew's
feedback, but it think it's better to wait a little longer for the next
version, to give the vendors more time to actually test this.

When you will re-submit you can retain the already collected ack.

Please include the target tree ('net-next') in the subj title and a
revision counter ('v3'). The whole subj should be:

[PATCH net-next v3 00/15] ethernet: Convert from tasklet to BH workqueue

Thanks,

Paolo
