It appears b44 and b43 use __netdev_alloc_skb() instead of alloc_skb() for their bounce buffers. There is no need to add an extra NET_SKB_PAD reservation for bounce buffers : - In TX path, NET_SKB_PAD is useless - In RX path in b44, we force a copy of incoming frames if GFP_DMA allocations were needed.
