Subject: 3c509: Call dev_consume_skb_any instead of dev_kfree_skb.
X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~176^2~4167^2~96^2~52

3c509: Call dev_consume_skb_any instead of dev_kfree_skb.

Replace dev_kfree_skb with dev_consume_skb_any in el3_start_xmit
as it can be called in hard irq and other contexts.

dev_consume_skb_any is used as on this simple hardware the
skb is consumed directly by the start_xmit function.
