Indeed. That patch was likely too simple, and didn't properly handle
the split of mbuf data buffers.

I have another version based on using sglist, which I think it's also
a worthwhile change for netfront. Can you please give it a try? I've
done a very simple test and seems fine, but you certainly have more
interesting cases.

You will have to apply it on top of a clean tree, without any of the
other patches applied.

Thanks, Roger.
