Subject: RE: [PATCH net-next] asix: asix_rx_fixup surgery to reduce skb truesizes
Dear Grant and All,
We are going to do some testing on the revised asix.c driver with ASIX's different USB to LAN solutions (AX88178/AX88772B/AX88772A/AX88772). Please advise where can I download the latest revised asix.c driver source with this driver patch for further testing? (Sorry I am newbie on Linux kernel driver patch threads. =_="") Thanks a lot.
---
Best regards,
Allan Chou

Your rewrite is definitely cleaner/simpler. If it works, ship it! :)
I'm traveling right now and don't have access to the HW to test it.
I'm hoping that ASIX could run a few simple tests as well.
