Andy,

I would say that's an over optimistic assessment. It doesn't fix this
bug because the driver still crashes the hardware and we still get the
DMA stalls. It doesn't fix
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/404972 - as
the upper layer throughput issues are still there. It may help with
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/460886 as it
seems to have stopped the crashes due to network scanning.

So you still get to close a bug, just not this one ;-)
