Hi Ben, thanks for the pointer to this patch! I did not test the new kernel, but instead installed the linux-source-4.3 package, recompiled only the mv643xx_eth.ko module from these sources, installed it into the existing kernel modules directory and reproduced the bug. Then I patched the two source lines from the git commit above, recompiled and installed the fixed module, and have not seen any corruption since! So I can confirm that the above patch fixes the bug. Thank you very much! Best Regards, -Robert
