[PATCH] NET: [CORE] Re-enable irqs before pushing pending DMA requests

This moves the local_irq_enable() call in net_rx_action() to before calling the CONFIG_NET_DMA's dma_async_memcpy_issue_pending() rather than after. This shortens the irq disabled window and allows for DMA drivers that need to do their own irq hold. Signed-off-by: Shannon Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED

[PATCH] NET_DMA: remove unused dma_memcpy_to_kernel_iovec

[PATCH net-next] sunvnet: add support for IPv6 checksum offloads

The original code didn't handle non-IPv4 packets very well, so the offload advertising had to be scaled back down to just IP. Here we add the bits needed to support TCP and UDP packets over IPv6 and turn the offload advertising back on. Orabug: 26289579 Signed-off-by: Shannon Nelson
