Some more investigation revealed that the cassini driver leaks the data
portion of all RXed packets, this makes the driver completely unusable.

We've tested the following combinations:
 * 2.6.17 (patched, but no cassini related patches)
 * 2.6.22 Ubuntu Gutsy.

It still worked in 2.6.12 where we originally backported the driver from
2.6.14.

The sk_buff count in slabinfo stays normal, so the skbs are properly
freed. I'm suspicious about all this cas_page_t wrappers.

Is there a maintainer for this driver? All our previous questions went
unanswered.
