As I replied to the ionic patch, please justify this with how you found
it and how you reproduced a problem. Resend the patches as a series so
we can discuss them as one change.

The driver is using 2kB receive buffers, and can chain them together up
to a max receive size of 9126 bytes (or so), so how can we receive more
than 18 fragments? Please explain your logic

Your patch doesn't compile. You must compile test and explain your
patches better.
