Subject: [PATCH] qeth: Move away from using neighbour entries in
 qeth_l3_fill_header()


We've moving to a model where dst_entry objects to not have
a reference to the associated neighbour entry, instead such
neighbours must be looked up on-demand.

Here in qeth_l3_fill_header() it's actually much simpler to
use the information in the route itself.  The code is
already conditionalized upon protocol type.

If one of you could test this against net-next, I'd appreciate
it.  I plan to make similar changes to the other dst_get_neighbour*()
call in this driver.

Thanks!
