Hi Greg,

I didn't see the patch in 3.14.57 or 3.14.58 - could you please consider it 
again (for all stable kernels that don't have it)?

My three machines with bnx2x interfaces have been running file with patch 
3.14.56, for the last 35 days. The original problematic event (spewing a 
million messages which are suppressed by that patch), did not reoccur so far 
(neither did any other issue, dmesg is completely empty since boot).

best regards
  Patrick
