Greetings, netdev!
Since the Linux Driver Project apparently has a glut of talent, I figured I'd
ask for a little help with an existing driver. As some of you may know, Jay
Cliburn and I have been working on atl1 since last summer, and we've gotten the
driver merged and stable. It does the
Hello All,
currently the mipsnet driver fails after transmitting a number of
packages because SKBs are allocated but never freed. I fixed that
and coudn't refrain from removing the most egregious warts.
- mipsnet.h folded into mipsnet.c, as it doesn't provide any
useful external interface.

Sorry Chas, you'll need to submit ATM changes like this within the
merge window just like everyone else. The merge window for 2.6.24
was open for more than a week, and is now closed.
Please resubmit these during the 2.6.25 merge window.
Thank you.

Last time I looked at the source code
Remove proc_fs.h from headers that doesn't really need it. Typical overkill is
including full header when one can get away with just forward declaration of
"struct proc_dir_entry".
Number of files that are recompiled after touching proc_fs.h drops from 1100
to 513(!) on x86_64 allmodconfig.

This particular problem has come up many times over the years. So far
the standard strategy has been to ignore it. It's doubtful that the
complexity needed for a fix is worth it.
Workaround at user space level: call shutdown() first instead of close()

That is true and that's why I applied your patch.
