Subject: [net] ixgbe: stop double counting frames and bytes
Message-id: 20090305155828.GM12660@gospo.rdu.redhat.com
O-Subject: [RHEL5.4 PATCH] ixgbe: stop double counting frames and bytes
Bugzilla: 487213
RH-Acked-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@redhat.com>
RH-Acked-by: John W. Linville <linville@redhat.com>

Since we don't make our customers pay by the bit, there is no reason to
double-count received bytes and received packets with the ixgbe driver.

This will resolve RHBZ 487213.
