[PATCH] forcedeth: fix random memory scribbling bug
Two critical bugs were found in forcedeth 0.47: - TSO doesn't work. - pci_map_single() for the rx buffers is called with size==0. This bug is critical, it causes random memory corruptions on systems with an iommu. Below is a minimal fix for both bugs, for 2.6.15. TSO will be fixed properly in the next version. Tested on x86-64.
