Eric, David,

what action should I take here?

1) take also:
commit e6247027e5173c00efb2084d688d06ff835bc3b0
Author: Eric Dumazet <[email-masked]>
Date:   Thu Dec 5 04:45:08 2013 -0800

    net: introduce dev_consume_skb_any()

2) drop 'gianfar: Carefully free skbs in functions called by netpoll'
from stable-3.12

3) any other idea?

thanks,
