[Bug 602979] [NEW] Marvel 88E8053 ethernet controller reports hw csum errors and stops responding

[Patrick McNamara]

Public bug reported:

At seemingly random times, a "hw csum error" is reported on the system
console.  When this happens, the NIC will stop responding.  The sequence
"ifconfig down, rmmod sky2; modprobe sky2; ifconfig up" will bring the
NIC back to a normal state.  There does not seem to be any correlation
between this error and network traffic.  The system this is occuring on
is a NFS server and can server many GB of data with no problem.
