In testing a FIP patch on top of the current fcoe-fixes tree, I get this
slab corruption, just after the FCF issues a clear_link and then becomes
available again.

This only happens if I'm running tcpdump, so may have something to do with
the shared data of a cloned skb.  Although the message says "probably bad RAM",
it's probably something clearing a bit in the skb data after it has been freed
by skb_release_data().

I'll look into it further, but thought I should let you know it's there.
