i have found a little problem with sky2 experimental network module
since it's on stable kernel tree.

when my system is sending/reciving many data (particuraly with samba) in
UDP , the traffic will be too slow, many error and after i have to
unload and reload the module sky2.

Unfortunatly there is not log for that.

I can see there is something wrong like watching with ethereal network
analizer. It's report many out of order packet.
