On u-boot bootloader 1.1.2 on AMD Alchemy Au1x00:
The au1x00_mac.c assumes that ethernet transmit always starts with
transmit buffer 0.  This is not necessarily true (in the event of a warm
reboot).
This little patch fixes that and prevents (reduces?) transmit timeouts
that you might see when you're repeatedly warm-rebooting your board
during development.
A different fix has been chacked in recently. Please have a look  and
chek if it's ok with you, too.
Best regards,
