Subject: bne2 rx packet drop?

Hi Michael (and netdev!)

   I've got a customer seeing ~1000 rx packets dropped per day (on a busy
interface, bonding) via 'netstat -ni' RX-DRP's field across their 4-node
cluster.  The code seems to put checksum_discard and mac_discard into
that counter, so I'm not sure what the root cause is.

Any hints?  What are the conditions which cause mac_discard?

Thanks!
Rusty.
