[PATCH] module refcounts for airport driver

This patch takes out the MOD_INC/DEC_USE_COUNT in the airport (Apple wireless ethernet) driver. The driver already does SET_MODULE_OWNER on the netdevice, so the MOD_INC/DEC_USE_COUNT are unnecessary and just cause warnings.

Please apply.

Thanks,
Paul.

[PATCH] module owner for ppp_synctty.c

This patch fixes ppp_synctty.c (used for doing PPP over some synchronous serial HDLC links) so that it sets the owner field of the tty line discipline it exports, rather than using MOD_INC/DEC_USE_COUNT. This is more or less from Stephen Hemminger.

Please apply.

Thanks,
Paul.

[PATCH] TSO fix

* Premature write-back of descriptors during TSO causing resources to be returned too early on ppc64. Fix is to wait until last descriptor of frame is written back, then return resources back to OS.
* 82544 hang caused by setting RS bit in context descriptor. Exposes known hang in 82544. Fix is same as above - set RS bit only in last descriptor.

[PATCH] fixed stalled stats collection

* Bug fix: In the rare event of a failed command to dump stats, stat collection would stop, giving the illusion that traffic had stopped. Fixed by issuing stat dump in watchdog regardless of status of previous attempt to dump stats.
