Looks like both of these patches hit mainline as of 2.6.38-rc1. I'll take a look to see if they can be included in a maverick SRU.
One question about the patches though. In the first patch skb_pad() is called without checking the return value. I'm not all that familiar with the networking code -- is there a reason that we can be sure that the skb_pad() calls will always be successful in this context?
