Cover letter [PATCH 0/2] tlan: fix earlier fixes, remove big buffer mode
Hi,
Unfortunately it seems that my last patch introduced a few problems.
So here are two patches: the first one fixes the pci memory unmapping. The second one removes the big buffer mode.
That mode has never worked for me and I've been using tlan cards since 2001 or so. With Google I could find one case where someone claimed it was working on 2.4.0-test1-ac7. ;-)

There's another (likely) bug in the bbuf mode (think skb copying there by txlen bytes), introduced by my earlier patch, which is fixed by the second patch by removing the mode altogether.
Cheers,
