[Xen-devel] [PATCH] Increase MAX_SKBUFF_ORDER

["Philip R. Auld" <pauld@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
        The recent (changeset 7700) switch to use the architecture
specific skbuff allocation routine breaks with very large MTU sizes.
The below patch raises the MAX_SKBUFF_ORDER to 3. Could this be 
applied to make it the default?

Thanks,

Phil
