The following changes since commit bb728820fe7c42fdb838ab2745fb5fe6b18b5ffa:

  core: make GRO methods static. (2012-11-29 13:18:32 -0500)

(commit b9cc977d9d4d1866ee83df38815f4b3b34d99dd9)

1. More workarounds for TX queue flush failures that can occur during
   interface reconfiguration.
2. Fix spurious failure of a firmware request running during a system
   clock change, e.g. ntpd started at the same time as driver load.
3. Fix inconsistent statistics after a firmware upgrade.
4. Fix a variable (non-)initialisation in offline self-test that can
   make it more disruptive than intended.
5. Fix a race that can (at least) cause an assertion failure.
6. Miscellaneous cleanup.

Ben.
