Thanks. Does not patch. Code looks not to be in the rc6 that Linus
put out. Guess there is more to come. (This is what I believe is
the segment in rc6 -- at line 2179.)

vp->tx_ring[entry].frag[i+1].addr =
cpu_to_le32(skb_frag_dma_map(
&VORTEX_PCI(vp)->dev,
frag,
frag->page_offset, frag->size, DMA_TO_DEVICE));
