    Hello,

    I have a customer who's getting tons of this msg in his LOGs:

    kernel: protocol 0008 is buggy, dev hdlc0

    The msg comes from net/core/dev.c, and this device is using the Frame
    Relay protocol in drivers/net/hdlc.c .

    What I'd like to know is:
    - What exactly causes this msg?? It seems that it's printed when someone
      sends a packet without the skb->nh.raw correctly set, but I couldn't
      find any driver under drivers/net that sets this.
    - How can / should I solve this?? Should it be solved in the hdlc.c driver
      or somewhere else in an upper level??

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Later,
    Ivan
