 ethernet at full line rate traffic

Hi Jarek;
After 5 days and more then 20 billion packets passed without crash, it
seems that this patch is working for me, at least for crash type 2.
(For type 1, it only occured once and I can never reproduce this
again, but still trying. I think with this patch is also lowers the
risk for type 1.
For adding a new bug entry for skb_over_panic, before that I think I
must find a reliable way to make this type of crash reproducable,
otherwise I don't know how to test it if it solved or not.
Lastly, thanks a lot for your valuable help to overcome this problem
and also is there anything that I can do  for testing / commiting this
patch to mainline?

Thanks
Emin
